Computer Vision for Visual Effects

(Cambridge University Press) This book will educate students, engineers, and researchers about the fundamental computer vision principles and state-of-the-art algorithms used to create digital visual effects. Going from the classics of Hollywood to exciting recent developments that will lead to new effects, this book uses images, algorithms, and interviews to tie the mathematical concepts to filmmaking.
