The Hammer Sequence - This animated film, shown at the SIGGRAPH 89 film show, was a continuation of the character animation R&D at NYIT Computer Graphics Lab, now extending the dancer model to other types of characters and adding more sophisticated clothing and dynamics techniques. King Maxwell was the first use of my facial animation system, that I wrote and then used to animate the king and other characters. Credits include Steve DiPaola, Susan Van Bearle, Richard Lunden, Glenn McQueen, Irene Lee and Colin Hue.
See next slide for the techniques use in The Hammer Sequence.
