Overview
This exciting workbook uses actual projects from fields of engineering, architecture, and business to demonstrate how to transform static drawing, storyboards, and preliminary sketches into professional-quality, 3D models, rendering, and animations. The book begins with an overview of the basic process of animation, taking the reader through the discrete steps of concept development and storyboarding, model construction, scene layout, animation setup, and final editing and composition. Working with tutorial assignments provided with Autodesk, Inc.'s 3D Studio program and additional exercises developed by the authors, readers then explore in detail the skills involved in modeling, rendering, and animating their designs. The book concludes with four in-depth 3D modeling projects that demonstrate how 3D Studio is used to create a manufactured product assembly, an engineering process model, an architectural walk-through, and a company logo. In this exciting hands-on book, Duff and Ross not only demonstrate the graphic capabilities of 3D Studio, but empower readers to create their own design and product visualizations, following a well-defined and understandable procedure used by graphics professionals.Book Details
