Research Project Outline
Our target is to develop new pre-visualization methods and tools for film-making by using mixed reality technology which merge real and virtual worlds. Those methods enable the realtime mixture of computer generated or pre-captured live action sequence and real background scene such as large set in sound stage, open set, and location site. The research results will be implemented into several interactive authoring tools including "object layout in 3D space," "camera work authoring," "total live action editing," etc. Also, those tools will be evaluated through trial use in film-making education.
