simulation 45 keyframe 50 in-between 53 in-between 57 keyframe 60 in-between 65 keyframe 70Figure 1: An upward-flowing jet of ink rendered in oil pastel. An underlying simulation is used as input to guide the artwork (frame 45 is shown). Frames 50, 60 and 70 are hand-drawn keyframes, while the remaining in-betweens were generated automatically by our system. AbstractWe present a method that combines hand-drawn artwork with fluid simulations to produce animated fluids in the visual style of the artwork. Given a fluid simulation and a set of keyframes rendered by the artist in any medium, our system produces a set of in-betweens that visually matches the style of the keyframes and roughly follows the motion from the underlying simulation. Our method leverages recent advances in patch-based regenerative morphing and image melding to produce temporally coherent sequences with visual fidelity to the target medium. Because direct application of these methods results in motion that is generally not fluid-like, we adapt them to produce motion closely matching that of the underlying simulation. The resulting animation is visually and temporally coherent, stylistically consistent with the given keyframes, and approximately matches the motion from the simulation. We demonstrate the method with animations in a variety of visual styles.

Cartoon water effects have both stylized visual appearance and stylized behavior, they also vary in forms and structures in different environment. In this paper we present a template-based approach for generating cartoon water effects including flowing water, water jet and ripples. First, we classify cartoon water into different types and design templates to define the underling structures for them, the low frequency information of cartoon water actions is encoded in those structures and frame-to-frame coherence is maintained during animation. Second, we design a set of cartoon water shapes that can be grouped according to some rules and placed onto corresponding templates. We also provide tools that allow the user to interactively specify the position or path of the cartoon water, and edit the size, speed as well as spacing of water shapes. Advantages of our approach are that stylized features of cartoon water can be well preserved both for forms and dynamics, furthermore, those stylized forms can be animated in real-time both in 2D and 3D.

In this paper, we describe a method for modeling the interaction between objects and the cartoon water which does not involve physics simulations. Our method involves the definition of flow path lines in the presence of obstacles, modeling of different types of water forms, and combinations of them in space and time. There are several notable features with our method: easy setting with little user intervention, modeling of complex water forms that represent more energetic water behavior than has been encompassed by semi-automatic means so far, and the adaptive change of animated water forms to the variation of obstacle object in number, size, and shape in the water path. A number of formulae for managing shape and time variance in these animations are given. We tested our method with both still and moving objects that have different shape and size in the water and relevant examples are given in the paper.
