Abstract :
Presents a visualisation of a medieval palace as an application for a new rendering and animation tool which is capable of rendering images in the style of line drawings. In contrast to other systems, we are able to generate frame-to-frame coherent line drawings in order to render an animation. The application of this presentation illustrates the capabilities of animated line drawings and makes use of different drawing techniques, such as simplifying a scene and emphasising important objects
