The Cartoon Animation Filter • Goal • Add “liveliness” to any motion signal • Should be • Simple • General • As automated as possible • Fast enough for real-time interaction
Follow-through x’’ -x’’ -x’’ , x -x’’ + x Anticipation x*(t) = x(t) + x’’(t)*- x x’ x’’ time
x*(t) = x(t) + x’’(t)*- x*(t) = x(t) + x(t)*- ’’ -LoG
Convolution with -LoG Error in equation (2): x*(t) = x(t) * -LoG x*(t) = x(t) + x(t) * -LoG
-LoG Parameters • Amplitude – user set • Width (frequency) – automatically set [later] s
Demo 3 • Show ball with vectors forward and backward • Show 3 copies of curve, original and time shifted forward and back • Convolve • Show squash and stretch ball again
p Squash and Stretch x’’ LoGp(t) = LoG(t+Dt) Dt ≈ x’’·p
Squash and Stretch x’’ • Volume Preservation • Inversely stretch/squash orthogonally to acceleration time
Related Work • Physically Based, lots • Stylized, e.g., Chenney et al. 2005, Igarashi et al. 2002 • Surface Deformation, lots… • Signal Based, e.g., • Unuma et al. 1995, • Bruderlin and Williams, 1995 • Video Paintbox, Collomosse 2004 • Motion Magnification, Liu et al. 2005
Enhancing Video Objects • Need to maintain constraints • Simplest approach • Move figure in each frame vertically to keep feet/skateboard in place
Golfswing • Apply filter to each DOF independently • What should the filter width be?
fixed s adaptive s Setting LoG Width s(t) = 2p /w*(t) w*(t) = maxw|X(w)| w w*(t) = maxw|F(x’(t))| (over 32 frame window) q original time
Discussion • (Almost) fully automated • NOT a tool for experts • But may make good first cut • Need better constraint maintenance • IK, physical constraints • Online (in-game) usage • Single animation adjusts to situation
