Title:

    Artisitically Directable Walk Generation

Presenter(s)/Author(s):



Abstract:


    We present a framework for artistically directable walk generation. A generative network is trained using a motion capture dataset and a manually animated collection of walks. To accommodate an animator’s workflow, each walk is presented as a sequence of key poses. The generative framework allows to specify a set of traits including gender, stride, velocity and weight. A generated walk is designed to be the starting point when blocking an animation: an animator can introduce new keys on the controls.
