The document discusses the history and uses of computer-generated imagery (CGI). It notes that the first CGI was created in the 1960s by Russian scientists to model a moving cat. CGI has since been used in films, television, and other media to create visuals that cannot be achieved in the real world. The process involves creating 3D models, assigning them properties, animating elements, and rendering the scene. CGI has benefits like prototyping and animation but also higher costs than practical effects. Popular software for CGI includes Maya, 3D Studio Max, and Blender.

2. History
 The first CGI is created by group of Russian mathematician
and physicists headed by N.Konstantinov created a
mathematic model of a moving cat across a screen.
 A program was made by a specialized computer called
BESM-4.
 New CGI developments followed shortly as a few months
later in 1971 the first CGI was used in television programs.
 The first CGI was created in the film Futureworld in 1976.
In a scene the hand and face of the actor was enhanced
with the use CGI

3. What is CGI ?
 CGI is the application of computer graphics to
create images in art, printed media, video games,
films, television programs and commercials.
 In simple word , anything that can’t be in real
world which can be describe using computer
component is called CGI .

4. Where it can be used ?
Illustrate medical devices & body
parts
Demonstrate mechanical processes

5. Where it can be used ?
Render product prototypes
Visualize a wide variety of
complex graphic concepts
Create artwork and book
Illustrations

6. How does the process
work?
 Create the digital 3D wireframe models
 Our "sculpting" software tools are one way to create
models.
 Assign visual properties to the wireframe
objects

7. How does the process
work?
 Animate camera, objects, lights, etc.
 simple as panning a camera across the subject
 Render the scene
 Our computers can be a set to render multiple frames for
an animation sequence or just one very high resolution
frame for large format print use. Imagine billboard sized
CGI.

8. Visual effect of CGI
Rise of the Planet of the Apes (2011)

9. Merit of CGI
 Prototyping gives a clear idea how the
end product look like.
 Animation gives wonderful design in
reality
 It could be referred to the versatile
exploitation of the CGI graphics in the
films industry

10. Demerits of CGI
 Greater Cost
 More complex for making new visual
effect rather than reality.
