Emphasis is on scripting interactivity and animation. This course is a basic introduction to the field of three-dimensional modeling and animation. Students learn to create simple three-dimensional objects on the computer and animate them as Quicktime movies. Emphasis is on the analysis of perspective, three-dimensional space, lighting, cameras and texture mapping. Students learn how to create more complex three-dimensional objects on the computer and animate them as Quicktime or VRML movies.
Emphasis is on intricate lighting, camera and texture creation techniques.
Students learn to create complex three-dimensional objects on the computer and animate them as Quicktime or VRML movies. One third of this course is spent investigating the possibilities of full-color graphic illustration and creating an illustration in that style. The remaining two-thirds of the class emphasizes encouraging students to develop an individual style and choosing media appropriate to the solution of a given problem. Students use visual and conceptual skills in their own work problem-solving process. Professionalism and the study of contemporary illustrators and their work are very important.
