Abstract:
The short film Partly Cloudy is about the relationship between a stork and a cloud named Gus (Figure 1). To achieve the goals of the film, Gus needed to emote while maintaining a cloudy physical quality. Our talk will discuss the development and challenges of creating a cloud with the appeal of a human character.
