This class introduces students to creating models and animations using 3D Max, which is the same program used by professionals to create special effects, computer generated animation, and video game graphics used in the entertainment industry today. The animations created will range from single-object models and expand to full-scene animation production. The students will be given specific objects to create and be encouraged to use their imaginations to make each animation more realistic. Throughout the course, students will develop their eye as an animator, as well as the essential skills for creating animations in a 3-D space perspective.
