ABSTRACT
This production session will explore the art and innovation behind the creation of the Academy Award®-winning "Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse." The filmmaking team behind the first-ever animated Spider-Man feature film took significant risks to develop an all-new visual style inspired by the graphic look of comic books. The hand of the artist is visible in every frame, including misalignments and bleeding colors, imperfections rarely seen in CG animation. The entire look of the film was driven by artists' intentions, in which design and style was more important than accuracy or realism. The presentation will delve into the new technology developed and the changes to both the pipeline and workflow required to accommodate working in this new visual style. Every department at Sony Pictures Imageworks was asked to reconsider what it means to make an animated feature in the spirit of this revolutionary comic book style and to bring something new to the look of the film. Various new techniques were developed including the rigging and animating of facial line work, 2D hand-drawn effects and stylized rendering.

Another approach to rough soft hemirings and corresponding decision making
Combining rough sets and soft sets, a kind of novel rough soft hemirings with respect to a strong h-ideal of hemirings in Pawlak approximation spaces is introduced. The relationships between lower and upper rough soft hemirings are studied. In ...
An art-directed wrinkle system for CG character clothing and skin
We present a kinematic system for creating art-directed clothing and skin wrinkles on CG characters used in the production of computer-animated feature films. This system employs a curve-based method for generating wrinkles on reference poses, which are ...
