Differentiable Variable Fonts

Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract Typography is an essential component of visual communication. Editing and animating text appearance for graphic designs, title sequences, commercials, and logos remain highly skilled tasks requiring detailed, hands‐on efforts from pro artists. Automating these challenging manual workflows requires balancing the competing goals of maintaining a

SAGE: Structure‐Aware Generative Video Transitions between Diverse Clips

Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract Video transitions aim to synthesize intermediate frames between two clips, but naïve approaches such as linear blending introduce artifacts that limit professional use or break temporal coherence. Traditional techniques (cross‐fades, morphing, frame interpolation) and recent generative inbetweening methods can produce high‐quality plausible ...

Generative Cutout Animation

Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract Cutout animation is one of the earliest forms of animation, and to this day remains a popular technique featured in numerous films including Monty Python and South Park series. Most computer animation systems, however, focus on different styles, including cel animation, making cutout animation somewhat underexplored.

CANRIG: Cross‐Attention Neural Face Rigging with Variable Local Control

Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract Facial animation is one of the most labor‐intensive aspects of animation and VFX, as traditional rigging consumes weeks of expert time and forces animators to spend countless hours manipulating hundreds of controls to achieve varied expressions.

Dynamic Wave Trains: A Procedural Approach to Spatially Varying Ocean Synthesis

Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
In this paper, we present a high performance procedural model capable of synthesizing and rendering a virtually infinite ocean. Our method exhibits spatial variations as the orientations, speed and choppiness of the waves is parametrized for each frequencies and each point in space. The provided visual abstract exhibits a sunset rendering of a large 40

The Story(line) So Far: A Survey on Storyline Visualization

Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract Storyline visualizations model narratives as temporal networks, using x‐monotone lines to represent entities and their interactions over time. This technique offers an intuitive way to reveal structural patterns over time, such as character co‐occurrence and narrative flow.

t‐Regina: Data‐driven Authoring of Free‐form Registration for Cartoon Character Sprites

Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper proposes t‐Regina, a novel iterative scheme that automates the manipulation of grid handles in free‐form deformation (FFD) for deformable registrations of cartoon character sprites. First, we build a data‐driven FFD (dFFD) that enables users to handle locations of FFD handles from lower‐dimensional parameters.
