摘要：This paper describes a method of producing scenes for TV program, using “dynamic 3D models”. Dynamic 3D models are 3D models generated from images shot by multiple cameras surrounding an actor for each frame using 3D-reconstruction and texture-mapping techniques. They can provide highly realistic images as well as natural motion without using a motion-capture system. In addition, they allow flexible production, so the positions of the models can be changed and the models can be duplicated. Dynamic 3D models are therefore suitable for producing crowd scenes with numerous people. Although techniques of 3D reconstruction and texture mapping have been discussed and several applications have been proposed, they have not been widely used into TV or movie production because of the size of data and insufficient textural quality. By establishing an efficient production flow with recent powerful processors, we succeeded in producing scenes with sufficient quality for a TV program, which was aired in December, 2009. The scenes involving one thousand soldiers could be produced by shooting several sequences with only two actors. We describe the production flow that we established and present some scenes that we produced using dynamic 3D models for the drama.
