Assumed knowledge
3D Effects builds on the practical skills and knowledge introduced in SCME2202 3D Animation
Topic description
This topic expands upon the fundamental concepts introduced in the topic 3D Animation. It will address the advanced concepts of Nurbs modelling, texturing, lights and rendering, paints and brushes in 3D, and particles and physics simulations. A practical overview of these concepts as they are supported by the MAYA software package will be explored as a series of small projects. The focus will be on meeting industry standards in the production of convincing 3D simulations.
Educational aims
This topic aims to give students the opportunity to:
- understand advanced concepts of 3D modelling, rendering and simulation as it applies to industry standards
- acquire a working vocabulary relevant to understanding and practicing 3D Effects
- become familiar with a range of 3D Effects concepts and applications
Expected learning outcomes
On completing this topic students will:
- demonstrated a e familiarity with the fundamental concepts of 3D modelling, rendering and simulation as it applies to industry standards
- have gained a working vocabulary relevant to understanding and practising 3D Effects
- have gained a working knowledge of a range of 3D Effects concepts and applications
