Paper Presentation 1: Debevac, P. (2006). Virtual Cinematography: Relighting through Computation. IEEE Computer Magazine 39(8), 57-64.
This paper presents a method to virtually control the illumination in a recorded scene with real actors using basis light positions and solving reflectance equations based on Plenoptic functions on 7 Dimensions (azimuth, inclination, wavelength, time of the incident ray of light in question & 3D position in which the light is beign sensed). Two examples of relighting a actor’s performance & relighting a large environment are also discussed. Future work might involve collecting more accurate reflectance data and analyzing it in various interesting ways.
