DIGM 5817 - 3D Effects Animation

(3 credits)

Prerequisites: DIGM 3130 or permission of instructor. This production course focuses on dynamic animation strategies to visualize physical phenomena. Students will explore rigid and soft bodies, particle animation, and rendering in both theory and practice. Additional topics include techniques involving instancing geometry with particle motion, basic fluid dynamics, cloth simulation, and dynamic constraints. (Graduate students taking this course must also take DIGM 5816 3D Effects Animation Graduate Laboratory.) (fall)
