This is the process of binding a modeled surface to a skeleton.

The _________ is the interface for your character, dictating how the character moves.

A _________ is basically a marker used to specify an object's position and attributes at a given point in time.

After you create a skeleton, you bind it with the character’s surface so that the surfaces move with the skeleton during animation. The character’s surface after binding is called a ______.

These are the building blocks of skeletons and their points of articulation; they have no shape and therefore can not be rendered.

Who should he consult to reach that goal?

Figure 5 shows an open door

Based on the figures in figure 5, where is the center of rotation for the of the door?

_____________ a face or polygon that is made up of five or more sides or edges connected by five or more vertices.

Which of the following modeling techniques allows for a real world object (or even actor) to be scanned, analyzed, and the raw data (typically an x,y,z point cloud) is used to generate an accurate polygonal or NURBS mesh.

_________________ Models are comprised of smoothly interpreted surfaces, created by "lofting" a mesh between two or more Bezier curves (also known as NURBS).

____________________ meshes are created organically, using a (Wacom) tablet device to mold and shape the model almost exactly like a sculptor would use rake brushes on a real chunk of clay.

Choose the correct definition for Topology. (3D Modeling)

What is the main difference between Photorealistic and Stylized 3D models?

3D Modeling is used in a wide range of fields, including:

The Oculus Rift and Samsung Gear Headsets are used for:

_________________is a technology that layers computer-generated enhancements atop an existing reality (Real World) in order to make it more meaningful through the ability to interact with it.

Which of the following software is used for 3D modeling?

Identify the models that are stylized.

Which selection mode allows you to select edges, vertex, or face in Autodesk Maya?

Which is the correct order in which processes in a 3D Studio would occur

Select the images that show low polygon models.

Select the models that are photorealistic.

Identify the images where the character is in a T-pose.

Identify the icon/button that allows the user to use the Extrude tool in Autodesk Maya 2020.

Identify the icon/button that allows the user to use the Target Weld tool in Autodesk Maya 2020.

3D meshes that strive for with efficient polygon distribution, proper placement of polygonal edge-loops, few or no triangular faces are referred to as:

_______________is a process of making three-dimensional solid objects from a digital file. The object is created by laying down successive layers of material until the object is created.

Read the following statement and answer the question.

"When you make changes to 3D shape in Maya the information is stored in the channel box under the inputs section. A long list of all the tweaks are stored. It is important that you delete this history when you have finished modeling"

Why is it important to delete your history after you have finished modeling the object?

This process projects a texture map onto a 3D object

These are the materials that actually define the color of your model when rendered or seen in the view port. Identify the different surface materials that you can choose from.

You can get assets from Autodesk Maya such as Paint Effects, Ocean examples, Fluid Examples, Sculpting Base Meshes, etc.

These can be accessed by going to the:

What are the 3 types of lights that are used in a 3 point light setup?

The __________ is the main light source, and it is position on one side of the character. It is the brightest light used in a 3 point lighting setup.

The ______________ is the secondary light and it is used to fill in dark areas or shadows on the object.

The _____________ is position behind the character. This light is used to separate the character from the background. It ca add an halo effect on the outline of the object.

Identify this light?

Identify this type of light.

__________________ Light emits parallel light rays in a single direction but the light reaches out into infinity.This is light that mimics the lighting that you would get from the sun. You can rotate the light in any direction. Only its rotational values matter.

______________________is the process of improving the appearance of an image on different devices. Various attributes of an image such as contrast, color, saturation, detail and black level, may be enhanced whether for motion pictures, videos, or still images.

What does a colourist do?

__________________ is the automatic process of generating a photorealistic or non photorealistic image from a 2D or 3D scene by means of computer programs.

A child within your character rig’s hierarchy can influence the movement of its parents. The node controls the rotation of the chain is known as:

Mannualy rotating the characters limbs independently is known as
