Secondary Motion for Performed 2D Animation
UIST '17: Proceedings of the 30th Annual ACM Symposium on User Interface Software and Technology

When bringing animated characters to life, artists often augment the primary motion of a figure by adding secondary animation -- subtle movement of parts like hair, foliage or cloth that complements and emphasizes the primary motion. Traditionally, ...
Evaluation of reducing three-dimensionality of movement to create 3DCG animation looks more like 2D animation
SA '18: SIGGRAPH Asia 2018 Posters

Recently, 2D animation (referring to Japanese animation in this paper) images have usually been created from 3DCG. However, even if 3DCG looks like 2D animation, the movements of the objects still seem like that of 3DCG. One of the reasons is that 3DCG ...
Hair motion cloning from cartoon animation sequences: Research Articles
CASA 2006

This paper describes a new approach to create cartoon hair animation that allows users to use existing cel character animation sequences. We demonstrate the generation of cartoon hair animation accentuated in ‘anime-like’ motions. The novelty of this ...
