Course detail

Advanced Visualisation and Animation

FA-VYM2Acad. year: 2009/2010

The subject provides information on general 3 D modelling and photorealistic visualisation.
More advanced and demanding procedures are explained - Surface modelling, Nurbs modelling,
global illumination. More detailed attention is devoted to the creation of animation outputs.
