Course Objectives This course aims at providing an innovative approach to create a model of a product and making an animation used for tv, cinema and web based commercials and presentations. Besides having a general knowledge in 3D animation and modeling, learning scene editing of a 3d animation is one of the main goals.
Course Learning Outcomes The students who succeeded in this course;
  • To improve the 3d modelling knowledge.
  • To model a product in 3D with presentation and commercial style. Preparing it for a commercial scene and how to use the model animation for web, TV and cinema commercials.
  • To learn which ways of 3D modelling and texturing techniques are important for product presentation.
  • 3D scene settings, light settings, background and camera movements.
  • Rendering the 3D product animation with render pass settings and compositing techniques.
Course Content 3D modeling techniques suitable for 3D product presentation, workflows of multiple software design, scene lighting render and animation settings, editing presentation animation, using render passes layers in compositing and color correction process.
