Course abstract
The aim of The study course provides an opportunity to learn the general principles of three-dimensional graphics and their use in the preparation of various types of spatial objects or interactive three-dimensional attachments. Students acquire practical skills in creating spatial objects, surfaces, modelling and creating animations.
Learning outcomes and their assessment
As a result of the study course students:
•knows the basic principles of creating three-dimensional graphic models and their application in various spheres of activity – practical work and creative work;
•knows how to use three-dimensional modelling tools, create models for various target applications, object texturing, environment settings, lighting, photorealism, animation, combining real video with created graphic elements, 2D graphic animation in three-dimensional space - practical works and creative work; •is able to independently find a solution for a specific task, argue his opinion in the process of developing practical work and creative work, develop a three-dimensional graphic scene and realize it - practical work and creative work.
