ANI 339: 3D Modeling and Shading

In this course students will study the processes and techniques for creating 3D assets, texturing, and lighting in 3D. The procedures covered in this course include creating and preparing models for texturing, building and manipulating shading networks, laying out UVs, and painting textures. Topics in lighting will be approached from the foundation of traditional cinematography, focusing on driving both mood and story. In addition, students will utilize complementary skills in lighting and texturing to create high-quality renders to showcase their 3D assets and environments.

ANI 230 is a prerequisite for this class.
