Fast and Deep Deformation Approximations

The SIGGRAPH series is here. You have cast your votes, now I’m publishing four short videos (and support material) on the papers you have found most interesting. I’ll publish this videos bi-weekly. The first one is on the paper ‘Fast and Deep Deformation Approximations’ by Bailey et al. Hope you like this!

I’ve also created a prototype implementation of this paper for you, check it out!
