ABSTRACT
In ”Raya and The Last Dragon”, a blast of energy rings across the desiccated lands of the ancient world of Kumandra. This climactic story point represents a powerful force of magic and transformation, and as such, is art directed to be composed of stylized wave patterns and harmonic textures, as if created by sound vibrations. To achieve this, we artistically stylize a simulated volume using Neural Style Transfer. In this talk, we describe the integration of deep learning-based tools into our effects pipeline to accomplish this.

Toonsynth: example-based synthesis of hand-colored cartoon animations
We present a new example-based approach for synthesizing hand-colored cartoon animations. Our method produces results that preserve the specific visual appearance and stylized motion of manually authored animations without requiring artists to draw ...
Stylizing video by example
We introduce a new example-based approach to video stylization, with a focus on preserving the visual quality of the style, user controllability and applicability to arbitrary video. Our method gets as input one or more keyframes that the artist chooses ...
Automatic expressive deformations for stylizing motion
GRAPHITE '06: Proceedings of the 4th international conference on Computer graphics and interactive techniques in Australasia and Southeast Asia3D computer animation often struggles to compete with the flexibility and expressiveness commonly found in traditional animation, particularly when rendered non-photorealistically. We present an animation tool that takes skeleton-driven 3D computer ...
