Project Brief

Project Title: Animated Environments

Unit Title: Digital Environments/ Visual Studies

This unit focuses on the development of students' skills in environmental computer visualisation. Students begin to exploit the possibilities of animation within an environment to create a virtual setting to support dynamic character interaction.

Working in teams to simulate conventional animation industry workflow, students are introduced to the visualisation and creation of a environment in 3D using modeling, texturing and lighting techniques. They learn how to create and populate this environment with contextually appropriate assets, in a consistently defined and implemented visual aesthetic that is derived from their drawing and research into environments both actual and virtual.

Unit Aims:
  • To introduce industrial, team based, animation workflows;
  • To develop personal reflection upon individual contribution to group endeavor;
  • To develop UV mapping and texturing skills;
  • To develop the ability to generate considered and analytical visual responses to research.
