3D ANIMATIONS

In 2d animation 50% of work is done by the artist himself. Computer
comes to the scene in the last sections only. But in 3d the artist becomes
a technician. I.e. the all work of the artist is done by 3d software's. We just
define first and last position of the object for animation. In between frames
are created automatically by software using a technique called tweening. Here
we will give you the important applications& process of 3d animation

3D TITLING
Now a day 2d titles are being replaced by 3d titles. It became
attractive because it can be viewed at any angle. Today most
of the titles appearing in visual media are developed in 3d
software’s. 3d studio max like sw’s are used for this purpose.
Creativity is essential to succeed in this field.

WALK THROUGH
A walk through is a very useful applications in 3d animation. To
construct a building first visualize the building using 3d software
and then make the actual construction. There are several types of
virtual cameras available in 3d software and they are moved like

normal digital cameras by observing this we can rework or modify
the plan of particular building before actual construction.
AutoCAD and 3ds max are the main software used for this purpose

3D MODELING
In 2d animation the artist himself does 50% of work; computer comes
to the scene in the last sections only. But in 3d the artist became a
technician. I.e. the half of the work of the artist is done by 3d
software’s. We just define first and last position of the object
(known as key frames), in between frames are created automatically
by software using a technique called tweening.

3D WIRE MESH CREATION
3d animation begins with the creation of wire mesh of a object or
character. This is called skeleton a little modeling knowledge
is essential for this mesh creation. After creating this mesh object
get a 3d dimension look. At this time we will be in a position to
see the object at any angle of vision (dimension)

GIVING MATERIAL
The next work is giving material or texture to the mesh of object.
This is depends up on the type and nature of that object. We can
create a suitable material for the object using the software like
Photoshop. At present 3d soft wares area accomplish by large number
of digital libraries. The artist can also make material design according
to his pleasure.

GIVING LIGHT AND SHADE
On of the most important feature of 3d software that differ from others
is its capability to give a 3d dimensional approach in 2d interface, with
the help of light and sound 3d soft wares give different types of lighting
facilities for giving shadows and light. Technique is also used to give
different colors to light and to give variations in frequency length.

ANIMATIONS

The next work is giving required movements to the object in the
wire mesh. Here techniques need to give directions only to the
key frames. The frames in between 2 key frames are created
by tweening technique. Now days several types are software
are available for arrangements of key frames. They are inverse
kinetics dynamics and particle systems

MOTION CAPTURE
This is a wonderful technique of giving life to the objects in the
wire mesh. This is achieved using an electronic device connected
with a computer. By capturing the movements of the computer
capturing the movements of the man and other objects in to
the model this is known as Motion Capture. The main feature
of this motion capture is we can give originality to the movements
to the models we created. Today Motion Capture technique is widely used in 3d animation films.

CAMERA MOVEMENTS
Several types of virtual cameras are available in 3d soft wares
and are far better than original movie cameras. The positions of the
objects are arranged with the help of these cameras. Virtual cameras
in the animation soft wares can be moved according to the movements
of the objects like ordinary camera used in the location. The movements
and viewing position of the animated objects will be same as the
movements and position of the objects seen through the eyes of
an ordinary camera. After these process animated characters are
rendered in a powerful system and make publish

SOFTWARES
Discreet 3ds max and Alias wave fronts Maya® is the most popular 3d
soft wares used for 3d animation.

3DSMAX
Autodesk(discreet) 3ds max is the most famous 3d soft wares used
for animation, modeling and rendering. This software is introducing
by AutoDesk. At the beginning this was a dos-based application and
AutoDesk formed new company called 'kinetics' and they introduce
a window based application known as 3dstudio max and (3ds max).
The name 'kinetics' was renames as discreet and known as 3dsmax.
To day comparing to the other soft wares max is the most suitable
interface for beginners and powerful 3d authoring sw for modeling
texturing animation.
MAYA
The world's another powerful 3D animation and visual effects software is
Alias wave fronts Maya®. Experience industry-leading innovations for
the creation of advanced digital content, Maya includes all of the
integrated tools and functionality like other 3d software's. Huge plug-in
and material library is the key feature of Maya. And it is capable of
supporting high end animation
