Abstract:
This sketch presents a set of techniques developed for the simulation
of Chinese Shadow Play. The objective is to turn traditional
shadow shows into electronic forms such that they become more
accessible and be preserved. Computer models of the puppets are
created in a semiautomatic process. To correctly capture the gleaming
shadowing effect, a rendering technique based on the photon
mapping method [Jensen 2001] has been developed. Our initial effort
has resulted in an animation that is composed of excerpts of a
famous Chinese folk story. In the animation, lighting effects and
delicate motions close to a real show are featured.
