Procedural animation applies computer code to generate video frames, allowing for unique and special effects such as water, fire, smoke and moving or color shifted lighting. The following pages link to video prepared from screen shots of procedural graphics.
On this page, programmed animated effects include whispy travel through clouds, burning digits and colorful drops of blue liquid.
What are Procedural Graphics?
Procedural graphics refer to programmed processes which create color values, highlights, shapes and other digital image techniques. Procedurally generated moving graphics often apply to textures for 3D meshes, with GLSL Shaders in the C language, providing special effects such as animated blurring, interactive highlights, glowing, masks, fire and explosions.
Two dimensional procedural video also covers a wide range of techniques such as translucency (alpha), global composite operations, the appearance of 3D with light and shadow, masks, color shifts and filters.
