Bio:
SIGGRAPH Asia 2009
Stephen Regelous received an Academy Award for Scientific and Engineering Achievement for the design and development of Massive, an industry-first system utilizing AI-driven autonomous agents to generate animation. Stephen conceived of the basic concepts for the software in the early 1990s after studying artificial-life-agent-based systems, and developed Massive years later for “The Lord of the Rings” trilogy, where Massive transformed audience expectations for epic crowd and battle scenes in feature films and television. He began his software career writing solutions for particle-animation muscle-based facial animation, morphing, and an L-system used to synthesize plant life that has been widely used in the motion picture industry. He was named one of the top 50 New Media Producers and Innovators by the Producers Guild of American and nominated for a World Technology Award, which recognizes high levels of innovation in the fields of biotechnology, space, energy, and design.
