      Reality TV shows that follow people in their day-to-day lives are not a new concept. However, the traditional methods used in the industry require a lot of manual labor and need the presence of at least one physical camera ...
    • Automatic Lighting Design from Photographic Rules 

      Wambecke, Jérémy; Vergne, Romain; Bonneau, Georges-Pierre; Thollot, Joëlle (The Eurographics Association, 2016)
      Lighting design is crucial in 3D scenes modeling for its ability to provide cues to understand the objects shape. However a lot of time, skills, trials and errors are required to obtain a desired result. Existing automatic ...
    • CaMor: Screw Interpolation between Perspective Projections of Partial Views of Rectangular Images 

      Raghuraman, Gokul; Barrash, Nicholas; Rossignac, Jarek (The Eurographics Association, 2017)
      CaMor is a tool for generating an animation from a single drawing or photograph that represents a partial view of a perspective projection of a planar shape or image that contains portions of only 3 edges of an unknown ...
    • CineFilter: Unsupervised Filtering for Real Time Autonomous Camera Systems 

      Achary, Sudheer; Moorthy, K. L. Bhanu; Javed, Ashar; Shravan, Nikitha; Gandhi, Vineet; Namboodiri, Anoop M. (The Eurographics Association, 2020)
      Autonomous camera systems are often subjected to an optimization operation to smoothen and stabilize the rough trajectory estimates. Most common filtering techniques do reduce the irregularities in data; however, they fail ...
    • Comparing Film-editing 

      Galvane, Quentin; Ronfard, Rémi; Christie, Marc (The Eurographics Association, 2015)
      Through a precise 3D animated reconstruction of a key scene in the movie ""Back to the Future"" directed by Robert Zemekis, we are able to make a detailed comparison of two very different versions of editing. The first ...
    • A Computational Framework for Vertical Video Editing 

      Gandhi, Vineet; Ronfard, Rémi (The Eurographics Association, 2015)
      Vertical video editing is the process of digitally editing the image within the frame as opposed to horizontal video editing, which arranges the shots along a timeline. Vertical editing can be a time-consuming and error-prone ...
    • Computer Generation of Filmic Discourse from a Cognitive/Affective Perspective 

      Bateman, John; Christie, Marc; Ranon, Roberto; Ronfard, Remi; Smith, Tim (The Eurographics Association, 2015)
      In this position paper, we argue that advances in intelligent cinematography require better models of the multimodal structure of filmic discourse, and of the inferences made by an audience while films are being watched. ...
    • Consistent Multi- and Single-View HDR-Image Reconstruction from Single Exposures 

      Mohan, Aditya; Zhang, Jing; Cozot, Remi; Loscos, Celine (The Eurographics Association, 2022)
      Recently, there have been attempts to obtain high-dynamic range (HDR) images from single exposures and efforts to reconstruct multi-view HDR images using multiple input exposures. However, there have not been any attempts ...
