| Popis: | In this paper, we present a new compositing approach to obtain stylized reflections and refractions with a simple control. Our approach does not require any mask or separate 3D rendering. Moreover, only one additional image is sufficient to obtain a composited image with convincing qualitative reflection and refraction effects. We have also developed linearized methods that are easy to compute. Although these methods do not directly correspond to the underlying physical phenomena of reflection and refraction, they can provide results that are visually similar to realistic 3D rendering. The main advantage of this approach is the ability to treat images as ``mock-3D'' shapes that can be inserted into any digital paint system without any significant structural change. The core of our approach is the shape map, which encodes 2D shape and thickness information for all visible points of an image of a shape. This information does not have to be complete or consistent to obtain interesting composites. In particular, the shape maps allow us to represent impossible and incoherent shapes with 2D non-conservative vector fields. Comment: 16 pages |
