Important Vocabulary
Important Vocabulary
- Tinkercad -a free, online 3D modeling program that allows users to design 3D objects, build electronic circuits, and code
- 2D- two-dimensional
- 3D-three-dimensional
- svg file-Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG) files are used to create two-dimensional graphics, illustrations, charts, logos, and icons. They are a popular choice for web design because they can be scaled up or down without losing quality.
- cad file-A CAD file is a digital file that contains 2D or 3D models of a physical object, created using computer-aided design (CAD) software
- Computer-aided design- (CAD) files contain both 2D or 3D designs. They're used to create models or architecture plans. 2D CAD files are referred to as drawings, while 3D files are often called parts or assemblies.
- Vector - (in physics) a vector is a quantity with magnitude (a number value) and direction
- Vectors - are represented by arrows. Direction and length of the arrows matter
- Vertex - a place where two or more curves, lines or edges meet
- Three-dimensional Shape - a solid figure or object that has a length, width, and height
- Surface Area - the sum of all the faces found on a three-dimensional figure; represented in units squared
- Nets - a two-dimensional drawing or pattern of a three-dimensional figure
- Rectangular Prism - a three-dimensional object that has eight vertices, twelve edges, and six faces (all made up of rectangles)
- Triangular Prism - a three-dimensional object that has six vertices, nine edges and five faces (made up of two triangles and three rectangle

3D animator
A 3D animator creates animations that are three-dimensional and may be used in videos, motion pictures, television programs and other applications. Some 3D animators focus on certain types of animation, such as the creation of objects, humans or backgrounds, while others take a more generalized approach and create animations of all kinds.
