1. A computer-implemented process for generating a video of a scene, comprising: using a computing device to perform the following process actions: inputting one or more streams of sensor data that represent the scene; and generating scene proxies from said streams of sensor data, said generation comprising the actions of: generating a stream of mesh models of the scene and a corresponding stream of mesh texture maps from said streams of sensor data, each of the mesh models comprising a collection of vertices and a collection of polygonal faces that are formed by the vertices, each of the mesh texture maps defining texture data for one or more points on each of the polygonal faces, and for each of the mesh models, breaking down the mesh model into one or more convex sections, and for each of the convex sections of the mesh model, defining a three-dimensional (3D) hull that surrounds the convex section, surrounding the convex section with the 3D hull, and projecting the texture data that is associated with each of the polygonal faces in the convex section onto the 3D hull, said projection producing a hull texture map for the convex section.
