SIGGRAPH 2016
R&D supervisor at OLM Digital. He has published technical papers, several of which were presented at SIGGRAPH, SCA, NPAR and Eurographics. He is co-founder of the Digital Production Symposium (DigiPro, 2012-2016), served as SIGGRAPH Asia 2015 Courses Program co-chair, and was a coorganizer of the symposium “Mathematical Progress in Expressive Image Synthesis” (MEIS2013-2016). He organized several courses at SIGGRAPH and SIGGRAPH Asia in 2010, 2013, and 2014: http://anjyo.org
SIGGRAPH 2014
R&D supervisor at OLM Digital. He has been credited as R&D supervisor for recent Pokémon and several other movies. His research focuses on construction of mathematical and computationally tractable models. Dr. Anjyo’s research includes recent SIGGRAPH and IEEE CG&A papers on art-directable specular highlights and shadows for anime, the Fourier method for editing motion capture, and direct manipulation blendshapes for facial animation. He served as co-chair of the Digital Production Symposium 2012 (DigiPro2012), and was a co-organizer of the 2013 Mathematical Progress in Expressive Image Synthesis symposium (MEIS2013). He is also a VES member. http://anjyo.org
