|
|
What is production |
the process of three dimensional computer animation involves a series of standard steps: modeling, rigging, animation and rendering. |
|
|
what is modeling |
capturing the shape of a physical model directly into the computer program |
|
|
what is rigging |
attaching models to the motion skeletons that will be used to animate them with a wide variety of techniques |
|
|
what is animation |
where start and end position are specified for all objects in a sequence, to motion capture where all positions are fed to the objects directly.the lighting of the scene and the shading characteristics are often specified before the animation is laid out. |
|
|
what is rendering |
the process of representing visually the animated models with the aid of a simulated camera. |
|
|
what is postprocessing and postproduction |
techniques that can be often applied to the images before they are recorded |
