    Reimagining a 2D Painted Portrait as a Kinetic 3D Sculpture
    (The Eurographics Association, 2021) Ellis, Ellen Conlan; Adzhiev, Valery; Hulusic, Vedad and Chalmers, Alan
    This paper describes a Cultural Heritage related project concerned with developing computer technology for reimagining a 2D painted still portrait made in a distinctive fine art style as an animated 3D sculpture whilst preserving the principal features of the initial painting yet resulting in an artefact of original quality. This work explores both artistic and technological aspects of a production pipeline. The case-study to prove the concept relies on Francis Bacon's ''Study for Portrait (Michel Leiris)''. A supplementary video shows the resulting animated piece with Bacon's voice-over.

    Towards the Formal Teaching of CG Applications in Cultural Heritage for Computer Graphics and Animation Students
    (The Eurographics Association, 2021) Anderson, Eike Falk; Adzhiev, Valery; Fryazinov, Oleg; Hulusic, Vedad and Chalmers, Alan
    The rapid technological advances in computing and computer graphics of the past three decades have in turn fueled the proliferation of the use of these technologies for Cultural Heritage. Formal educational courses for the application of computer graphics to Cultural Heritage are few and far between, and the courses that do exist tend to be targeted at archaeology students, with hardly any courses catering to computing or computer graphics students. To address this gap in education provision, we introduce a final year undergraduate course on ''CG and Animation for Cultural Heritage'', which provides students on technical and art & design computer graphics and animation courses with a broad introduction to the creation of Cultural Heritage applications of CG and animation techniques more commonly found in digital entertainment and visual effects. In this paper we describe this course and its curriculum and discuss its outcomes.
