Abstract
Methods and associated systems for improving the visual quality of real-time interactive multimedia presentations, by blending 2-D image data derived from a plurality of 3-D scene views associated with one or more 3-D scenes in accordance with presentation data modifiable by user input in real-time. The 2-D image data rendered from the perspective of the individual scene views are blended together using an associated blend mode in a back to front order producing a 2-D composite image for projection on a display device to a user of the real-time interactive multimedia presentation.
