Visual Blending using 2D Morphing SK Semwal J Ohya* I Semwal B Bikker University of Colorado, Colorado Springs *ATR, Japan
Visual Surrealism • 1917 by Guillaume Apollinaire • Dream like quality • Super realism writing, verbally or any other means of thought • Extends to animation
Introduction • Images indistinguishable from reality: • Nadia Thanlmann (human forms) • Badler (Human forms) • Many examples from movies and films
Motivation • 2D Morphing • Surrealism evident in Morphing (Willow) • Field Morphing technique
Extensions from Field Morphing • Multiple segments define an area which remains constant • Polygonal extents provides consistent morphing with ghosting reduction
Results • Precise timing can be achieve • Smoothing introduces “lag”
Summary • Results are more realistic as we can control some immovable parts during morphing • Multiple line segments and their choice determine the quality of animation
Future Work • Defining the areas automatically • Extensions to 3D during motion capture
