This document provides an introduction to computer graphics. It discusses graphics and computer graphics, including raster graphics and vector graphics. It also discusses animation and computer animation. Dimensions including one, two, and three dimensions are defined. The objectives of the introduction to computer graphics class are explained, which will include 3DS Max modeling, activities in Photoshop and InDesign, and an introduction to computer animation. The document provides definitions and examples of key graphics and animation terms.

5. Graphics:
Graphics are visual presentations on some surface,
such as a wall, canvas, computer screen, paper, etc…
E.g.: photographs, drawings, graphs, diagrams, geometric designs, maps,
engineering drawings, or other images.
Computer Graphics:
Computer graphics is a sub-field of computer science and is concerned
with digitally synthesizing and manipulating visual content.
The image generation and processing using some techniques in the
computer.

6. Raster Graphics Vector Graphics
A raster graphic is an image made of
hundreds (or thousands or millions) of tiny
squares of color information, referred to as
either pixels or dots.
A vector graphic uses math to draw shapes
using points, lines and curves.

8. Animation:
A transformation is involved.
Derived from the Japanese word anime.
Computer Animation
Computer animation is the art of creating moving images via the use
of computers .

9. Dimension
To measure/ measurement.
Measurement required to define the characteristics of an
object—i.e., length, width/breadth, and height/depth.
One Dimension
Measurement of an object in only one direction
E.g. A one-dimensional object is a single line. It has length
but no width or height/depth
Two Dimension
The two dimensional object has any two
of the following:
•Length
•Breadth/width
•Height/depth
Measurement of an object in two directions.

10. Three Dimensions
Measurement of an object in 3 directions/sides length,
breadth, height.
The 3 dimensional object uses length, breadth, height.

11. Process: Procedure, series of action .
Animation: The word animation means
movement of picture.

13. Get the idea of the story and discuss
with others.

14. Write the idea that you have discussed in
the form of a short document.
This document must summarize the
main idea of the story.

15. Make storyboards like the hand-drawn
comic book version of the movie
and serve as a blueprint for the
action and dialogue.

16. Record the voice for actors.

17. A reel is a video tape that allows the
cleaned-up story board sequence.

18. The art department creates
creates inspirational art
illustrating the world of
characters (models).

19. Convert the models that was designed
in the story board in to 3-D in the
computer using some application.

20. After the models are made in 3-D,
the scenes must be dressed.

21. Translate the story in to 3-D scenes.

22. Apply animation on those models.

23. Models must be shaded using colors.

24. Lighting completes the look.

25. Joining all the scenes in to one film.

26. Add additional effects
1. Sound
2. Actions etc….

27. Stereograms are 3D images hidden within another
picture. In order to view the 3-D images, simply stare at
the picture until the image starts to take shape.
