An information processing device for drawing an object arranged in a three-dimensional virtual space, in an expression viewed from a virtual camera, the object including a field object associated with a two-dimensional plane defined by a first axis and a second axis, and a specific object arranged on the field object, the device including: a change processing unit changing a region of the field object falling within a viewing angle of the virtual camera; and a deformation processing unit deforming the field object, in which in a case where the region is changed by the change processing unit, the deformation processing unit makes a deformation mode of the field object different when it is determined that the specific object is positioned in the region after being changed and when it is determined that the specific object is not positioned in the region after being changed.

There is described herein systems and methods for camera colliders and shot composition preservation within a 3D virtual environment that prevent a virtual procedural camera from getting stuck behind an object, or penetrating into an object, when filming a subject, while at the same time also maintaining the screen composition of the subject in the camera shot.

A game device including memory an operation device, and circuitry. The memory is configured to store information related to an image of a first object and a virtual space. The operation device is configured to output first operation information and second operation information, based on a motion of a player. The circuitry is configured to display an image of the first object moving in the virtual space, progress a first game when the first operation information is retrieved, determine whether a state of the first object moving in the virtual space satisfies a predetermined condition in the first game, and progress a second game when the second operation information is retrieved within a predetermined period after the state of the first object satisfies the predetermined condition.

To enable you to take animations in a virtual space an animation production method comprising: a step of placing a character in a virtual space; a step of placing a virtual camera for shooting the character in the virtual space; a step of acquiring action data defining an action of the character from an external source; a step of operating the character based on the action data; and a step of shooting the action of the character by the camera.

A method and system of generating an image of a subject from the viewpoint of a virtual camera includes obtaining a plurality of source images of a subject and pose data for each source camera or cameras that captured the source images. Virtual camera pose data is also obtained indicating a pose of a virtual camera relative to the subject. Each source image is distorted based on a difference in pose of the corresponding source camera and the pose of the virtual camera. A weighting is determined for each distorted image based on a similarity between the pose of the corresponding source camera and the pose of the virtual camera. The distorted images are then blended together in accordance with the weightings to form an image of the subject from the viewpoint of the virtual camera.

Embodiments of this application provide a virtual scene display method performed at a computing device. The method includes: obtaining animation data and video data; displaying an animation interface corresponding to the animation data in an animation display area of a display interface, the animation interface including a first virtual scene including a plurality of animation elements; and playing a video clip in the video data in response to an operation on the animation elements in the animation interface, the video clip presenting a picture of transformation from the first virtual scene to a second virtual scene. A virtual scene display solution provided in the embodiments of this application can reduce resource consumption of an intelligent device and reduce picture stutter.

A computer generating a three-dimensional space and the images to be shown on a display: sets a first angle of view of the virtual camera; displays the image in accordance with the first angle of view; detects a position on the displayed image pointed to by the input device; calculates a straight line passing through the detected position and the virtual camera in the three-dimensional space; identifies an object intersecting the straight line; automatically sets a second angle of view of the virtual camera to zoom in and display the identified object, and displays the identified object using the display device from the perspective of the second angle of view.

A method of retargeting camera motion is disclosed. Data is received that describes a position of a target along a target path. Data is received that describes a position and an orientation of a first camera along a first camera path wherein the first camera is filming the target. A second camera path is computed, the second path corresponding to a second camera. The second camera path corresponds to the first camera path with one or more exceptions. The one or more exceptions include one or more of modification of orientation data corresponding to the second camera path to place the target at the center of a camera screen associated with the second camera and removing of a camera rotation roll for the second camera. A difference is computed between the first camera path and the second camera path. The computed difference is applied to a third camera path.
