Abstract: A system includes a memory, processors, and an asset player module configured to identify a playable asset configuration for a first playable asset, including a first graph configuration identifying processing nodes and edges, each node in the graph configuration represents a media processing component configured to modify media inputs to generate a media output, construct a graph in the memory based on the first graph configuration, receive a first set of media inputs, execute the media processing components in an order based on the graph configuration and using the first set of media inputs as the one or more input media components, based on said executing, generate a media output configured to be played by a conventional media player, alter the graph at runtime, thereby changing the media processing components identified within the graph, and execute the media processing components of the graph after the altering.

Abstract: A system is discussed herein that that stretches or squashes the target body parts based on a relative size difference between a source and the target. The angular configuration of the source is matched exactly in the destination. The system allows a squash or stretch of a part to be determined from a goal determined by the source actor.

Abstract: There is described a method for applying a control rig to an animation of a character, the method comprising: receiving a state change for the character being in a first state; determining a second state for the character using the state change; retrieving an animation clip and a control rig both corresponding to the second state, the animation clip comprising a plurality of poses for the character each defining a configuration for a body of the character, the control rig being specific to the second state and corresponding to at least one constraint to be applied on the body of the character; applying the control rig to the animation clip, thereby obtaining a rigged animation clip; and outputting the rigged animation clip.
