Title: The Use of CG in Japanese Animation

Presenter(s): Marc Salvati (OLM Digital, Inc.), Andreas Bauer (Polygon Pictures Inc.)

Description: Using production works such as “Zoid Wild”, “Knights of Sidonia”, “Drifting Dragons” and “Pacific Rim: The Black”, we present the use of CG in traditional animation in Japan, from a hybrid mix between hand-drawn and 3D elements to a full CG approach incorporating state-of-the-art computer graphics techniques.
