Introduction
Basic of 3d modeling and animation

3D Modeling is a three-dimensional representation of objects, animals, machines, and humans. In


animation production, all the settings and characters are composed of a 3D model. Modeling is an initial
step in producing an animation that is done in an animation studio. This is because characters and settings
need to be completed before they can be rigged and animated. Also, settings need to be located in their
places to specify the very last layout and composition of shots.

How 3D modeling is used:


3D modeling is used in different kinds of fields from engineering, game industry, film and animation,
business advertising to architecture, and special effects.

A well-known use of 3D modeling is in the film industry and animation. In the popular T.V series Game of
Thrones 3D modeling is used to visualize the things and concepts that cannot be acquired through life-like
stuff. Like the dragon.

Types of Modeling:
There are two types of 3D Modeling;

Organic Modeling:
Organic models include natural objects in the surroundings and characters, animals, and plants.

Hard Surface Modeling:


Hard surface modeling includes man-made objects and things such as buildings, vehicles, and things that
are manufactured.

There is some overlapping in separate organic modeling from hard surface modeling. Hard surface
modelers, model building environments, even if they might be natural places surrounded by rocks, plants,
and other natural creatures. The same thing happens when modeling specific parts of the character’s
clothes. Organic modelers need to use hard surface modeling techniques and practices.

Where to start?
To start modeling, concept art and model sheets are usually given. A model sheet shows the character
from different angles such as front which shows the natural pose, and from the back. Having model sheets
results in an increase of speed in the modeling process. However, they are not always available to use and
take advantage of. Knowing what is the intent of the director and concept artists helps the 3D modeler
does his job accurately.

Furthermore, photo reference should be used for any object or thing that is in need of clarity. Some
directors collect a library of photo references because they want to show what they really want.

To get the best result in modeling, it is important to model the large-scale shapes and forms before
working on the smaller details. The first step includes silhouetting, proportions, contours, major shapes,
and the character’s general forms.

3D modeling software:
In order to jump on 3D modeling, the ability and skills to work with the software are required. 3D modeling
software lets the designer design 3D models of what he has in mind. Some of them provide you with tools
to elaborate additional details to your model. The highest used ones are listed here.

3Ds Max:
3Ds Max is from the Autodesk family. It works with Windows and is used for video games, animation, and
engineering. However, it is mostly used by game developers.

Z brush:
Z brush is from Pixologic, Inc. It is the most advanced software in sculpting and modeling. What so great
about this software is that it uses traditional sculpting techniques in a digital platform. Working with Z
brush can be hard and frustrating if you are a beginner in modeling. But if you are a professional, your
creativity may flourish and you will enjoy the taste of authentic art.

Cinema 4D:
Cinema 4D is from MAXON Computer. It is used for 3D modeling, motion graphic, animation, and
rendering. It can perform polygonal modeling, texturing, animating, lighting, and many common features
that can be found in 3D modeling software.

Blender:
Blender is an open-source modeling software. It is capable of 3D modeling, texturing, rigging and skinning,
sculpting, animating, motion graphics, rendering, compositing, video editing. It can be used to develop
visual effects, interactive apps, animated films, and video games.

What is 3D Animation? Everything You Should Know


From our favorite Disney movies to our favorite video games, 3D animation is present in most things we
watch and enjoy. Technology continues to improve, and our graphics get livelier, sharper, cooler.

The entertainment industry is not the only consumer of 3D animation, though. The latter is widely used in
education, medicine, architecture, and of course, advertising. From all the various animation styles, 3D is
by far the most demanded one, especially by younger generations.

It’s easy to see why people love 3D animations: They’re super exciting, engaging, and a great
communicator. It’s no surprise so many businesses rely on them for brand storytelling, building a friendly
image, and attracting more customers.

Today, we’re going to uncover 3D animation, how it’s made, some tips and tricks, what 3D animation
software to use, and how to create your animation online even if you’re not a pro animator.

Ready? Let’s get started!


 What is 3D Animation?
 Difference Between 3D and 2D Animation
 The Process of 3D Animation
 Best 3D Animation Software

What is 3D Animation?
3D animation is the process of placing objects and characters in a 3D space and manipulating them to
create the illusion of motion. The objects are made based on 3D models assimilated in a digital
environment with 3D modeling tools. Alternatively, real-life objects can be scanned into a computer or an
animation tablet and become blueprints for 3D animated objects.
The goal of 3D animators is to move objects and characters in a given scene as realistically as possible. You
can create the perfect cartoon character, but if its movements are uneven, robotic, or awkward, all your
hard work will go down the drain. That’s why animators spend quite some time studying the basic
principles of motion to make their animations believable.

Difference Between 3D and 2D Animation:


We hear you; the names themselves give away the difference between 3D and 2D animation, but let us
expand just a bit more on this subject to show the difference in the creation processes.

2D animation is flat as it’s based on a two-dimensional plane with x and y axes. Think of Pinocchio, the
original Aladdin and The Lion King, The Little Mermaid, Rick and Morty — we could go on forever. With the
help of an additional axis, 3D adds a perception of depth to animations, making them more realistic.
2D animation achieves motion through the rapid succession of 2D scenes, each slightly different from the
last. 3D animation is done by building 3D models and maneuvering them in a three-dimensional setting.
The addition of a third axis gives way more room to move and arrange objects in a scene, making character
animation more flexible. You can clearly see the differences when browsing the 2D and 3D libraries.

The Process of 3D Animation:


Now, onto the more practical part — how does 3D animation work? The pre-production is not too far from
that of 2D animation. It starts with developing a storyline and a storyboard, sketching the 3D characters,
setting up the backgrounds, and laying the foundation for the production process.
The full animation process is pretty complex and nuanced, but here are the main phases of 3D animation.

Modeling:
Before we can have a functioning scene with character interactions, we first need to build our 3D
characters. Characters are based on 3D computer models, and their creation is called 3D modeling. A basic
3D model is a mesh of points, lines, and curves arranged in a way to map out an object. A computer sees
models as pure geometric shapes. It’s not until colors and textures are added that the map starts to
resemble a real object.
Much like humans and animals, a character needs a controllable skeleton to be able to move. Rigging is the
process of producing that skeleton. Once the skeleton is formed, the 3D model (also called skin) is attached
to the rig to get the character ready to be moved around.
Layout and Animation:
When the 3D characters are all set, it’s time for character animation — i.e., putting characters in their
respective scenes and animating their movements with 3D animation software. As you’ll see in the video
below, the first stages of the animation process are quite rough; movements and transitions are sharp and
unnatural.

Such a rough first draft is produced because animators first create only the starting and ending poses of
any motion. These poses are known as keyframes. The lighting, camerawork (picking the angles and depth
of a shot), effects, and other details are added much later to achieve the final, smooth animation that we
see on our screens
Rendering:
The last part of the animation production process is rendering. This is when the animation is finalized and
exported. This step requires great attention to detail to ensure the final render is perfectly polished.
Here, the main production process ends and is followed by post-production, where special effects, music,
voice-over, and sound effects are added and synchronized with the whole animation
3D Animation Software:
The variety of 3D animation software can seem overwhelming, but your current skill set will help to narrow
down your choices. If you’re just getting started with 3D animation, look for beginner-friendly programs
and upgrade your software once you’re truly ready. Most tools offer free trials, so take full advantage of
those before choosing 3D animation software to commit to.

Specifying your animation needs is another critical step to picking the right animation software. What
features are you looking for? Do you need epic visual effects, real-time rendering, motion capture, a tool
specialized in human models, or one for product design?
To ease your search for a suitable program, we have gathered a list of the best 3D animation software
tools. Check them out below.

Progress With Technology:


Technology evolves; there are constant updates, new computer software, improved features, and it can be
hard to keep up at times. But if you’re determined to stay up to speed with your field, you need to grow
with technology.

3D animation software has advanced a lot, and the right tools can save you time to work on more projects.
Be sure to pick 3D animation software that corresponds with your level of mastery. You never want to go
for fancy, complex systems you won’t be able to use proficiently.

Once you pick your 3D animation software, you really need to make it yours. Familiarize yourself with the
program, learn the shortcuts, tailor the tool to you, so it best supports your workflow.
THE HISTORY OF 3D ANIMATION: A DEEP DIVE

Though 3D animation seems like a modern concept, the history of 3D animation is long and rich.
Technology has allowed the genre to rise in popularity as it can be adapted for families and mature
audiences. As popularity continues to rise for 3D animation, so does the need for new animators and
studios. There is no greater time to be an animator in this ever-growing industry than right now!

In this blog post we’ll discuss the history of 3D animation and how the animation industry changed in just a
couple of decades. We’ll tell you about the surprising involvement of the aerospace company Boeing in the
beginnings of animation. Additionally, we’ll go through how Star Wars had a major hand in kicking off the
feasibility of 3D animation in Hollywood. But before we get into the history of 3D animation, let’s go back
to basics – what exactly is 3D animation?

Defining 3D Animation:
As an art form, animation is the rapid displaying of still images in sequence. Each image differs slightly from
the one before, and when they appear quickly in succession, it creates movement. This movement often
goes by at a rate of 24 frames per second, closely mirroring the speed of movement that we perceive in
real life. By doing so, the viewer experiences a realistic scene despite the characters being animations.

In 3D animation, specifically, characters and environments are three-dimensional. Animators use pixels and
work to give objects weight and timing. And sometimes, animators scan real-world physical objects to
create blueprints. In this case, instead of looking flat, 3D animation gives off the feel of realism, using the
same level of depth and detail our eyes see on a daily basis

The Birth of 3D Animation:


Lets start at the beginning of the history of 3D animation. During the early 1900s, a unique and never-
before-seen style of animation came into being called claymation. This style of animation consisted of the
modelling of clay into objects and characters resembling that of real life. Often, people would segment the
clay so that not only could characters move, but so could their limbs, heads, and torsos.
These characters inspired the method of stop-motion filmmaking. Early animations would take a photo,
move one piece of a clay creation, take a photo, and repeat. One of the well-known Claymation films of the
time was called The Sculptor’s Welsh Rarebit Dream, a trick film created by Edison Manufacturing in 1908.
However, despite its creativity, Claymation didn’t really take off. The growth of claymation was halted by
the challenges of clay sculpting and the time-consuming nature of stop motion. For now, the future of 3D
animation stayed largely unknown.

The 70s Boom:


It was many years before animation returned to the entertainment scene after claymation came to a close.
The re-emergence of 3D animation as a popular tool all started with the “Boeing Man” or “Boeman” in the
early 1960s. It was the creation of William Fetter, an employee at Boeing. His job there was to create 3D
models, using computers to animate and design these models for the company. This figure was meant to
simulate how a human would sit and move in the cockpit of an airplane. Fetter would go on to create short
videos of these rigged pilots, using them to understand ideal methods of cockpit design. With his work
known as the first form of 3D moving images, Fetter became credited as the father of computer-generated
3D animation.
Frederic Parke, a computer graphics academic, created the first 3D model of a human face. As a computer
scientist at the University of Utah, he produced a short film entitled Face & Body Parts in 1974. This short
film showed computer-generated expressions such as happiness and shock, and the movements from one
expression to the next. This would go on to pave the way for the complex facial animations we see in film
and TV today!

On the heels of Parke’s work came several other milestones. The first 3D computer-generated hand was
created by Edwin Catmull was the first of many landmarks in the history of 3D animation. Catmull and
Parke later came together to work on Future world, a major motion picture released in 1976. This set a
precedent, as the first film to ever incorporate 3D computer-generated animations. 3D animation
technology finally reached audiences for the very first time, marking a pivotal turning point in the history
of 3D animation industry.

Entry into Hollywood:


By the 1980s, 3D animation was finally gaining momentum and finding its way into the film industry. The
release of Future world certainly played a major part, but it was George Lucas’ Star Wars films that gave 3D
animation the final push it needed to cement itself in Hollywood.

In 1977, the release of Star Wars: Episode IV — A New Hope changed the game. Lucas, along with the
newly formed visual effects company Industrial Light and Magic, used 3D animation mostly in the realm of
creating enhanced visuals for models, puppets, and sets. What Star Wars started was continued by Tron, a
landmark film for 3D animation. Released in 1982, it featured computer-generated animation. This was the
first time animation was at the forefront of a film, instead of incorporating bits and pieces of animation
here and there.

The History of 3D Animation Technology:


But what exactly allowed for this explosion of 3D animation in the 80s? The answer, simply, is that
technology finally was able to catch up. From the first time 3D animation had come onto the scene until
now, nearly 80 years had gone by, allowing for the rudimentary principles of animation to be refined again
and again. Now, inventions in 3D animations were permitted greater complexity. For instance, recursive
ray tracing, a rendering technique, was introduced by J. Turner Whitted. With this tool, animated work
began to move closer and closer to realism.
Around the same time, in 1982, Autodesk released its computer-aided design software called AutoCAD.
This not only widened the possibilities of software-supported 3D animation but increased the accessibility
of the medium — and thereby, its popularity.
As the 80s wrapped up, 3D animation had become something Hollywood could not ignore. Its commercial
success was undeniable, as was its growing viability for use in a wide range of settings and genres.

Mainstream Development:
With the software and technology growing in advancements, the 1990s were a sweet spot for 3D
animation. Studios, filmmakers, and animators were all ready to take a risk on this new medium — and so
they did. The decade was kicked off with James Cameron’s Terminator 2: Judgment Day, which, though it
was live action, contained stunning visual effects completely foreign to audiences. Jurassic Park then took
this one step further with more than realistic and larger-than-life dinosaurs.
Unsurprisingly, the realm of entirely animated works expanded too. Veggie Tales, out in 1993, marked the
first fully 3D animated series. Not long ago, the iconic Toy Story came along, as the first fully 3D, computer-
animated feature-length film. The success of the innovative Toy Story, both critically and commercially,
placed it firmly into the limelight. Its box office gross of $363 million made it clear that 3D animation was
here to stay, and so was Pixar. At the time, the company was in its early years, co-founded by the same
Edwin Catmull who introduced the first 3D animated hand.

Turn of the Century:


The 90s were quickly coming to an end. But, the turn of the century brought more good news and
development for the 3D animation industry. For one, George Lucas was beginning to reap the rewards of
his continued belief in animation. In The Phantom Menace and The Attack of the Clones, almost all the
added effects used the technology of 3D animation.
2009 saw Avatar break records for its use of 3D animation at the highest level yet. 3D animation allows us
to create realistic human-like creatures, extensive world-building, and manufactured sets, making it an
option that was not only preferable, but the highly-coveted ideal. By now it was clear that technology was
flourishing, computers were widespread, and 3D animation was well on its way to its current-day multi-
million status.

3D Animation Today:
When you think of current 3D animation, images of Frozen, Zootopia, or Sing may come to mind. People
often see kids’ movies as the face of animation nowadays. But, in truth, 3D animation as an art form has
never been more viable or versatile. Though it may not be what first comes to mind, animation is used in
media far and wide. In fact, it’ll be hard to name a recent film that doesn’t use 3D animation technology in
any way, shape, or form. Even films like Tenet, Dune, and all Marvel movies utilize 3D animation
technology. In these films, the seamless combination of live-action and 3D animation is apparent; another
great innovation to come out of the 21st century.

With 3D animation technology frequently blurring what is animated vs. what is real, there is a distinct
emphasis on realism. And more often than not, animated objects stand in for real ones without us ever
noticing! Films are just the beginning. You can find 3D animation in television, but also in video games,
virtual reality, advertising, and education. The presence of 3D animation is strong, and even still on the
rise.

The Future of Animation:


3D animation is bound to see enhancements in terms of capability and complexity because of how much
technology supports it. AI and machine learning has the potential to speed up the animating workflow. This
would perhaps open up the field up to a greater range of possible animation styles.

Likewise, phenomena like photorealism and 4D animation are just now taking off — and also involve 3D
animation. Some of the more current trends, such as virtual reality and augmented reality, will also
continue to evolve. In fact, these are two disciplines which have already proven to be promising
applications of 3D animation. The mainstream quality of 3D animation will likely be amplified further.
Prepare to see uses of 3D animation in business, everyday communication, and marketing. Even now, the
2D industry utilizes 3D animation software in many of their productions

Without a doubt, aspiring 3D animations have grown


exponentially since the early 21st century. Many
want to get in on this fast-growing industry, and
contribute to an art form that is, all things
considered, still quite young. And as we move
towards the future, creating high-quality 3D
animation work will only get easier and easier.

It’s clear that 3D animation has come far from its


humble roots. Now, the industry looks set to move in
a range of exciting new directions. The history of 3D
animation has made a unique and long-lasting mark
on the world as we know it. There is no doubt that
this industry will continue to grow and surprise us.
OBJECTIVES OF THE 3D MODELING AND ANIMATION

Displaying physical dimensions:

3D modeling can help display the physical dimensions of a project and its distance in relation to other
objects in the layout.

3D models have three measurements: height, width, and depth. These correspond to the Z, X, and Y axes,
which indicate the model's measurement and the direction it may move in 3D space.
3D images are computer-generated graphics that provide the perception of depth. They are used in
movies, video games, graphics, and virtual reality (VR) projects. 3D images can also be printed with 3D
printers.

3D projection is a technique used to display a 3D object on a 2D surface. The projection uses visual
perspective and aspect analysis to project the complex object onto a simpler plane.
3D CAD and 3D graphics programs allow objects to be created on an X-Y-Z scale. As 3D entities, they can be
rotated and viewed from all angles as well as be scaled larger or smaller.

Creating realistic visualizations:


3D animation can turn 2D drawings into a realistic 3D view with real effects.

 Add furnishings: Real-world elements can transform a floor plan into a layout that reflects everyday
living. Design software often has a catalog of furnishings that can be customized.
 Use materials: Materials describe how an object reflects or transmits light. Shading or rendering
combine light and material properties to simulate how an object would look in a real-world setting.
 Determine sun orientation: 3D architectural site plan rendering services can adjust the sun's
orientation to demonstrate how a structure appears in different lighting conditions.
 Use lighting: Lighting is a crucial factor in making objects and images realistic. It can bring a scene to
life, highlight important details, and set the mood.
 Use the picture and describe technique: The more detail you use when visualizing, the more real it'll
feel.
 Use high-quality assets: Use realistic materials and experiment with camera angles.
 Add people and objects: Real-life elements can transform a basic floor plan into a layout that
reflects everyday living.
 Make it imperfect: Keep it simple and use post-processing techniques.

Creating images that are difficult to generate with traditional


animation:
3D models can create images that would be impossible or extremely difficult to generate with traditional
animation techniques.

Rotoscoping:

A technique that involves tracing over live-action footage to create detailed animations. It can be used to
create complex animations with multiple layers of motion by combining the traced images with other
elements, such as backgrounds, effects, or stylized drawings.

Fluid simulation:
A technique of creating realistic 3D animations of liquids, such as water, blood, or oil. It is one of the most
difficult 3D animation techniques to master because it involves solving complex mathematical equations
that govern the behavior of fluids.

Creating engaging learning experiences:


3D modeling and animation can help learners stay focused and engaged when exploring 3D visuals and
animations.

Consider your audience:


Understand how your audience interacts with your content and what best suits their learning styles.
Use multimedia:
Include films, interactive quizzes, simulations, and virtual reality experiences to grab attention and make
complex concepts easier to understand.

Use immersive simulations:


VR and AR technology allow learners to interact with and explore a simulated environment, which can help
to increase their understanding and retention of information.

Make content relevant:


Avoid adding unnecessary information to your content that will make your audience wonder about its
relevance and authenticity.

Enhancing visual memory:


Learners are more likely to remember visuals from 3D objects and models than from traditional text-based
course material.

VRAM's purpose is to ensure the even and smooth execution of graphics display. It is most important in
applications that display complex image textures or render polygon-based three-dimensional (3D)
structures. People commonly use VRAM for applications such as video games or 3D graphic design
programs.

 Use reference images.


 Optimize your geometry.
 Add textures and materials.
 Use lighting and shadows.
 Test and tweak your model.
 Here's what else to consider.

Creating an interactive environment:


3D modeling and animation allow learners to interact more with the course content. A 3D environment is a
three-dimensional representation of geometric data that resembles the real world. It is simply a digital
setting or background created with computer graphics software. It can be an indoor or outdoor location
with realistic or non-realistic objects that give you visual sensations.

In 3D computer graphics, 3D modeling is the process of developing a mathematical coordinate-based


representation of a surface of an object (inanimate or living) in three dimensions via specialized software
by manipulating edges, vertices, and polygons in a simulated 3D space.

SCOPE OF THE 3D MODELING AND ANIMATION


Introduction to Careers in 3D Modeling:
3D modeling is the process of developing 3-dimensional models or visuals of objects, people and
characters using computer software. This brings life to people, places, and actions from the one-
dimensional view or concept of the designer. Also, this helps people to understand a product or thing more
clearly through its 3-dimensional representation.

3D modeling is a vast technology that is used in various fields like video games, movies, architecture,
illustrations, engineering, and advertising. The process and tools used for modeling will be different for
each application. A vast amount of software is available for 3D modeling.

Today we are going to discuss careers in 3D modeling. As we saw above, this wide area of technology
creates a large and safe career for professionals. People who deal with 3-dimensional modeling are
