Abstract

The Virtual Camera Composition (VCC) problem consists in automatically positioning a camera in a virtual world, such that the resulting image satisfies a set of visual cinematographic properties [3]. In this paper, we propose an approach to VCC based on Particle Swarm Optimization[5]. We show, in realistic situations, that our approach outperforms a discretized, exhaustive search method similar to a proposal by Bares et al [1].
