3D Graphics

As part of the HDip in Creative MultiMedia Programming we completed a module in 3D Graphics.
We were introduced to the 3DS Max software to create 3D models.
Here's two examples of the work we completed.

Create A Fruit Bowl Still Life:

The brief was to create a fruit bowl scene with a least one apple, one banana and a red pepper and a wine glass with reflective surfaces.

The technical part was to use lathing to create the 3D model of the wineglass.

Apply standard  marble material to the worktop with a Raytrace map for reflections, there should be reflections of the glass and fruit bowl.

The apple and banana should be textured using UVW Map and Unwrap UVW modifiers.

Here's how mine turned out..........

3D Modelling with 3DS Max

Next we tried some 3D animation using 3DS Max.

The brief was to Create a robot animation using forward Kinematics, inverse Kinematics, animation rig hierarchical structure, create an IK Chain and constraints.
