Abstract:
ENVIZ is a toolset at DreamWorks Animation that uses the power of the GPU for both interactive hi-fidelity deformation and beauty visualization of environments in the 3D viewport. Artists can work iteratively in real-time with millions of points and evaluate motion in the 3D viewport, thus saving time and resources.
