It is divided into three phases:
1) 3D modeling (This is the process of forming a shape of an object)
2) Layout and Animation (Motion and placement of an object in a scene)
3) 3D Rendering (Producing an image of an object) Modeling 3D Modeling is down in two ways, either a 3D computer designer creating a graphic 3D model, or an engineer using specific tools to sculpture the 3D Model. Layout and animation The Models must be laid out in accordance to a scene, this will clarify location an size of the animation.
Some methods include keyframing, inverse kinematics, and motion capture. These techniques are used in conjunction with each other. Rendering This is the use of light and reflections to achieve movement and shadows. The image is converted into a model by simulating light, with two basic functions, transport (Light from one place to another) and Scattering (How the surface interacts with the light)
All this type of modeling layout and rendering is done with 3D software applications, a lot simple in todays society. Vast amounts of websites are available to teach, help ,guide, educate and are designed to support 3D graphic artists. Software developers and content providers seem to control, but there are private sites as available (Illusion Mage is the big talk of town at the moment) It is not a simple task of bringing an image to life, it requires dedication,practice, determination and a huge dosage of time and patience. With the right dedication and determination anybody can produce animation beyond the wildest imagination, its your imagination!
There are plenty of ways to learn how to 3D animate, there are on-line courses, there are colleges, schools, personal tutors, and so the list goes on, which are labeled with a cost, a well set out 3D animation software with support and training is the most common choice today and the most affordable.
Thank you for reading this article, anybody can do professional 3d animation with no experience, even you!! So you want to become an animator, so do it!!
I hope this information on how to 3d animate was helpful
