Description
Motion capture offers an alternative method for animating characters in 3D computer graphics (CG) to traditional frame-by-frame methods. An unspoken divide exists within the industry that silos realistic movement to motion capture and cartoon-style movement to traditional animation methods. This study challenges this divide and identifies production conditions for achieving cartoon-style motion for a 3D CG motion capture animation by examining a typical motion capture pipeline and testing reference materials from popular animation training manuals with recorded actions of performers at the time of capture.
Impact and interest:
Citation counts are sourced monthly from Scopus and Web of Science® citation databases.
These databases contain citations from different subsets of available publications and different time periods and thus the citation count from each is usually different. Some works are not in either database and no count is displayed. Scopus includes citations from articles published in 1996 onwards, and Web of Science® generally from 1980 onwards.
Citations counts from the Google Scholar™ indexing service can be viewed at the linked Google Scholar™ search.
