Film and television production companies are continually asked to render scenes ,that seem to be beyond the limits of their software and hardware. To complete ambitious 3D renderings with the required complexity, quality, and speed, almost all professional productions are rendered in multiple layers or passes and finished through compositing. Compositing is the art of combining multiple images into a unified final scene. Multi pass rendering and compositing allow for more efficient rendering, increased creative control, convincing integration with live-action footage, and rapid revisions of shots. 

The craft of lighting design was practiced for many centuries way before the invention of computer graphics, in many fields such as theater, painting, photography, and cinematography. 3D artists have a great deal to learn from the traditions of earlier lighters.

To get a professional result in lighting you need to control every step of the lighting process, from choosing the appropriate type of lighting for each purpose, to test rendering each light and adjusting its controls and options. Which takes a lot of time!

Kenny and Brain did a really good job on there advertising piece! It looked vary real and the lighting was perfect. Tod also did a great job of displaying his advertising piece. I give you guys an  A +. Keep up the good work!

This month I've been in 3-D, wow its been quit a challenge! It's also been fun and made some pretty cool things. Which i have on my blog. I know now how to light objects and make them 3-d. I was really impressed with my other fellow class mate's work. They did an amazing job! Also never knew how long it took to render things out! It took me 2hrs to do the coral seen! Yeah you got to have patients. 

 

"GOOD IS THE ENEMY OF GREAT"

I think this quote means that if something is just good its ok. Your not that satisfied with it. But if something is great its your best work and you love it. Don't just settle with its "good" you want it to be great and the best!

Im almost finished with my first project over australia and it looks pretty good for my first time using photoshop! I hope i learn a lot more about photoshop so i can do more with images. There is just so much you can do. Its just knowing how to use the tool's is my problem. 

My first assignment in my class is to think of a place where you've been or like to go? I picked Australia because of the beautiful scenery and all the amazing wild life there is to explore. I would love to go snorkeling in the great barrier reef. The culture would also be neat to experience. My good friend lives there as well so that is also why i want to go there one day.

GRAPHIC DESIGN!

  I JUST STARTED SCHOOL AT KEISER UNV. IM IN THE GRAPHIC DESIGN PROGRAM THAT'S WHY IM STARTING THIS BLOG. IN THE PAST FEW DAY'S I HAVE LEARNED A LOT ABOUT COMPUTERS. FROM THE PARTS INSIDE THE COMPUTER AND THE COMPONENTS OUTSIDE. I ALSO WAS INTRODUCED TO PHOTO SHOP! WHICH IS REALLY COOL AND IS A LOT OF FUN TO PLAY AROUND WITH! I NEVER WAS A COMPUTER WHIZZ AND REALLY DIDN'T KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT THEM, BUT I THINK EVERYONE SHOULD BECOME VARY FAMILIAR WITH THEM BECAUSE THEY PRETTY MUCH ARE ALL AROUND US AND PLAY A HUGE PART OF OUR LIFE'S! EVERYTHING IS RAN BY A COMPUTER AND MOST JOBS THESE DAY'S NEED PEOPLE THAT ARE GOOD WITH THEM. 

THESE ARE SOME GOOD DESCRIPTIONS FOR A GRAPHIC DESIGNER. A GRAPHIC DESIGNER IS A CREATIVE PROCESS THAT COMBINES ART AND TECHNOLOGY TO COMMUNICATE IDEAS. A DESIGNER WORKS WITH A VARIETY OF COMMUNICATION TOOLS IN ORDER TO CONVEY A MESSAGE.
