Shaping the Elements: Curvenet Animation Controls in Pixar's Elemental
DescriptionThis work presents a new shaping rig for creating fine animation controls deployed in Pixar's feature film "Elemental." We developed new tools that auto-generate surface-aligned orientations mapping animation controls into curvenet deformations. As a result, animators can quickly reshape the character articulation free of any extra rigging setup.
