Abstract:
We present a new procedural method to generate the stylized bark patterns used in the Earth characters of Pixar’s feature film Elemental. At its core, our approach is based on in-house geometry tools that generate shading surface attributes, followed by custom shaders that combine these attributes into a stylized texture.
