Abstract:
Scanline is currently developing the proprietary crowd-simulation tool “Sheep”. It is designed to generate mass scenes with 15.000 different characters, animate them by an unlimited amount of rules, supply presimulated cloth and render a whole shot in a single layer taking less than 45 minutes. This will disclose completely new dimensions for the realization of Visual Effects with mass sequences.
