We received requests to extend the submission deadline due to a conflict with the Easter holiday. After careful consideration, we have now agreed to extend the deadline to 24th April, 2025. We are looking forward to your contribution to the workshop. AniNex - The 6th Workshop on Next Generation Computer Animation Techniques <https://casa2025.sciencesconf.org/resource/page/id/5> https://casa2025.sciencesconf.org/resource/page/id/5 The sixth edition of the AniNex workshop will be held in conjunction with the 38th International Conference on Computer Animation and Social Agents (CASA 2025), which will take place between 2-4 June 2025, in Strasbourg, France. The workshop aims to disseminate state-of-the-art research on all aspects of computer animation, including multidisciplinary approaches with industrial applications. Through presentations and a poster session, the event will showcase the latest advancements in AI and computer animation, serving as a platform for discussions on the future of these technologies while fostering collaboration among participants. Call for Papers/Posters We invite abstract submissions (up to two pages) for the poster track and full paper submissions (up to ten pages) for the oral presentation track. Topics of interest include but are not limited to: . Machine learning and its applications in computer graphics, including computer vision, motion data retrieval and analysis, facial expression and emotion modelling, information visualisation; . Application of natural language processing for computer graphics and computer games; . Advances in physically based animation, fluid simulation, deformation modelling, collision handling, natural environment modelling, GPU-based modelling and simulation, and rendering; . Virtual reality and augmented reality applications, including hardware and software support, and novel human-computer interaction design and application; . Other advanced computer animation techniques. Submission documents must be anonymous (they should not contain author names). The paper submission format follows the same guidelines as the conference, and templates are available via the following links: LaTeX template [LaTex], or MS Word template [Microsoft Word]. All accepted full papers will be included in the conference proceedings (LNCS). Furthermore, selected papers will be invited for publication in two journals: Computer Animation and Virtual Worlds and Computers & Graphics.
