Un Système Interactif et Controlable de Peinture pour l'Animation 3D

We present a new approach to create painterly renderings of an animated 3D scene, allowing a controllable tradeoff between scene fidelity and stylistic design. Our approach extends and complements existing systems in order to ensure temporal coherence while maintaining consistent stroke density, and allowing a wide variety of stroke styles. It is based on a new dynamic painting algorithm which selects a suitable set of sample stroke locations based on an object-space hierarchy. We describe also an improved stroke drawing technique which allows a faithful depiction of the scene while letting the user specify his preferred stroke style via a shader. All rendering is interactive and performed on the GPU.
