Abstract:
|
"In the production process of contemporary movies, the usage of miniature effects plays an essential role in some complicated visual effects shots by combining scaled models and high speed photography or matte shots. Dynamic effects, specifically water effects, cannot achieve a sense of full scale because the size of a container may have limitations that reduce the ability to change the physical characteristics of the water. By combining the study of tsunami dynamics theory and advanced computer-generated imagery techniques, a single artist can manipulate the physical properties of the fluid to achieve a visual style improvement. The approach also helps break the limits of practical effects in a creative and artistic method, creating a more devastating tsunami in graphics." -- Abstract
