Abstract

Methods, devices, media, and other embodiments are described for managing and configuring a pseudorandom animation system and associated computer animation models. One embodiment involves generating image modification data with a computer animation model configured to modify frames of a video image to insert and animate the computer animation model within the frames of the video image, where the computer animation model of the image modification data comprises one or more control points. Motion patterns and speed harmonics are automatically associated with the control points, and motion states are generated based on the associated motions and harmonics. A probability value is then assigned to each motion state. The motion state probabilities can then be used when generating a pseudorandom animation.
