ABSTRACT

A real and a virtual world In films you might composite computer generated characters into a real world environment that has already been filmed. Likewise the opposite might be done with human actors being superimposed onto a virtual set, using blue or green screen techniques. Of course, there are also the films where everything is generated by computer. You could use these compositing ideas for your website, but it only really works well for pre-recorded films or pre-rendered animations. The key to our Web creations is interactivity, which means that we want the ability to change camera angles in real time and for our characters to be controllable. We require our environment to have some life and for us to have the ability to explore it.
