Understanding the process of 3D Animation

Image
 3D animation is basically the idea of creating moving objects in a 3 dimensional digital environment, as opposed to regular animation we are used to, which is largely 2 dimensional. The images are supposed to have 3 dimensions, and move within a three dimensional space, or at least appear to do so, because similar to 2D animation, 3D animation process also involves a series of consecutive images that appear to move since they are shown in a very fast sequence. There are three main steps to a 3D animation process , without getting into complex details: ·          Modeling In this phase, the objects and characters are constructed. This basic phase of 3D animation process uses mathematical representation for all the elements. A shape is taken and molded into a completed 3D mesh. A simple object or a “primitive” is taken and is extended and grown into a shape that can be refined and detailed. A geometric surface representation of any object can be achieved in specialized 3D softwa
