Create excellent 3D animations with free, open-source software. When you're looking for help with creating animation with Blender, look no further than the top-selling Blender book on the market. This edition of Blender For Dummies covers every step in the animation process, from basic design all the way to finished product. This book walks you through each project phase, including creating models, adding lighting and environment, animating objects, and building a final shareable file. Written by long-time Blender evangelist Jason van Gumster, this deep reference teaches you the full animation process from idea to final vision. With this fun and easy guide, you're on your way toward making your animation dreams a reality. Blender sits at a very unique position in the world of 3D computer graphics. In the distant past, to get into 3D modeling and animation, you had only a few options, and most of them were too expensive, too limiting, or — ahem — too illegal for people just trying to see what this whole 3D thing was all about. Blender circumvents all those issues because it’s free. And not just zero-cost free, but freedom Free. Blender is open source. A world full of developers and users regularly contribute code and documentation to this project, adding enhancements and improvements at a mind-boggling pace.

Blender 2D Animation: The Complete Guide to the Grease Pencil, Second Edition describes how to access the Grease Pencil component in Blender and create 2D animation within the Blender 3D environment. It is assumed that the reader has no previous knowledge of the Blender program and treats 2D animation using the Grease Pencil as a standalone application. Grease Pencil is a component of the 3D modeling and animation program, Blender. Blender is a free, open-source, 3D, computer graphics, software toolset used for creating animated films, visual effects, art, 3D printed models, motion graphics, interactive 3D applications, virtual reality and computer games.

Adobe Creative 3D Workflows brings a practical approach to understanding not only how to begin working with 3D assets but how each of the relevant Adobe apps interact through the creation and application of 3D materials, models, and effects across different workflows. Each topic begins with an overview grounding the approach alongside useful tools and then transitions to a tutorial-like approach with hands-on examples created through a specific set of workflows. From generating custom materials in Substance 3D Sampler, to producing 3D models from vector shapes using Illustrator while adding motion to these models in After Effects, to designing a variety of 3D environments across various platforms, this book provides a foundation of how to successfully work in the Creative Cloud and Substance 3D apps to produce stunning results. In early 2023, Adobe released the first beta of its integrated set of generative AI technologies, named Firefly. This new artificial intelligence service was exciting, as it clearly stood out from existing text-to-image AI services. How so? Adobe expressed interest in integrating Firefly into a wide array of existing software applications. Moving beyond familiar text-to-image workflows could greatly augment the design capabilities of creative individuals through the use of AI across a variety of media.

Рендеринг – фундамент компьютерной графики. Алгоритмы анимации, геометрического моделирования и текстурирования должны пропускать свои результаты через процесс рендеринга, чтобы они были представлены в виде изображения. В книге описывается рендеринг, основанный на рейтрейсинге, алгоритме трассировки лучей, который способен отображать реалистичные изображения сложных сцен. В конце каждой главы приведены упражнения для закрепления материала. Рендеринг является фундаментальной составляющей компьютерной графики. На самом высоком уровне абстракции рендеринг представляет собой процесс преобразования описания трехмерной сцены в изображение. Алгоритмы анимации, геометрического моделирования, текстурирования и других областей компьютерной графики должны пропускать свои результаты через процесс рендеринга, чтобы их можно было увидеть как изображение. Рендеринг стал вездесущим: от фильмов до игр и других областей; он открыл новые границы для творческого самовыражения, развлечений и рендеринга. В этой книге представлен набор современных алгоритмов рендеринга с по­мощью документированного исходного кода полной системы рендеринга. Мы считаем, что грамотное программирование является ценным способом реализации идей в компьютерной графике и информатике в целом. Часто некоторые тонкости алгоритма могут не проявить себя до тех пор, пока он не будет разработан, поэтому просмотр фактической реализации – хороший способ получить четкое представление о его деталях. Действительно, мы считаем, что такое глубокое понимание ряда тщательно отобранных нами алгоритмов обеспечивает лучшую основу для дальнейшего изучения компьютерной графики, чем поверхностное изучение многих из них.

Rig It Right! breaks down rigging so that you can achieve a fundamental understanding of the concept. The author will get you up and rigging with step-by-step tutorials covering multiple animation control types, connection methods, interactive skinning, BlendShapes, edgeloops, and joint placement, to name a few. The concept of a biped is explored as a human compared to a bird character allowing you to see that a biped is a biped and how to problem solve for the limbs at hand. Rig It Right! will take you to a more advanced level where you will learn how to create stretchy rigs with invisible control systems and use that to create your own types of rigs. This highly anticipated Third Edition features updated chapters and images, including new chapters on modeling with proper edgeloop (Rule #1!), how to Rig It Right then Rig it Fast with parallel processing, and new helpful scripts for evaluating your rig with the profiler tools. There are a hundred ways to do everything, which makes it so challenging to learn rigging. For this book, we’ll use these rules and refer to them often. I found that if I start with these as a baseline for the basic concepts, it helps manage the learning process and maybe even curb some chaos. It’s like a mysterious trailer, isn’t it? Sounds brutal, doesn’t it? Skinning and math; what on earth? Don’t worry. I can confidently say that in this book, you don’t need to know a whole lot of math. Logic and problem-solving skills, however, you’ll need a good deal of. Also, this book assumes that you have been working in Maya and have a basic understanding of modeling (at least some polygon modeling) and maybe have even tried your hand at setting keyframes on something. Therefore, this is not a “how to move the camera” or “how to get around in Maya” primer.
