“As new technologies approach unperceivable differences between CG characters and real actors, breakthroughs in processing power and software are creating a powerful new medium: Eye-Definition Computing,” says Carlye Archibeque, SIGGRAPH 2009 Computer Animation Festival Executive Producer “As this medium moves into real-time rendering capabilities, new possibilities are born in digital filmmaking, video game development, and interactive animation.”
Join the panelists as they contemplate the impact and implications of:
- Films with entirely CG created characters
- Real-time rendering for pre-visualization
- Game characters as detailed as CG film characters
- Digital immortality for actors through advanced new image and data capture techniques
- New possibilities in blending interactivity with the home movie viewing experience
