2.5D Cartoon Models Author - Alec Rivers from MIT Siming Liu
Overview • Artist draws different views
Overview • 2.5D model automatically compute intermediate views
3D Interpolation • Preserve 2D appearance of cartoons • No 3D model • Just translate and interpolate vector art using limited 3D inferences

Applications • Cartoons in interactive applications • Animation • Camera steady, model moves • Flash / cell phones • No 3D acceleration required
Conclusion • Advantages • 2D drawings without real 3D shape are possible • Easy and fast to create • Animation is straightforward • Limitations • Highly concave shapes difficult • Models cannot natively be lit, collided with
