Abstract

Our goal is to provide a support system for creating rich and flexible presentations in live performances using motion data. We created a live stage performance and a projection system which is for enhancing the performance with videos and CG animations. We choreographed and captured Noh motions, and created animation of CG characters to project. The CG characters were deployed in a responsive manner during a dance performance and integrated with live actors. In this paper, we describe the CG creation using Noh motion data, and our experience using the projection system and the CG in the live stage performance.
