How to make 3D animation, what are the steps?

Three-dimensional technology can be applied to many industries, and the production processes of different industries are different, but the basic production processes are basically the same. Next, the whole process of 3D animation production is explained, which is generally four steps: modeling, material, lighting and rendering.

I. Model construction

Whether playing games or making product animation, you need to make models first, advertising also needs to make animated product models first, and building animation also needs to make architectural models before you can continue to work. We call the step of creating a model modeling. Modeling is very important.

Second, add materials.

After you have a model, you need to specify a material for it, so that the model can be realistically presented. Through the use of different material types, a variety of colorful mapping effects are realized, which is conducive to the production of animation.

Three. Lights and shadows

A model with light and shadow is very realistic. Adding appropriate lighting according to different animation scenes can make the model more realistic. The addition of light and shadow adds more atmosphere to the game.

Fourth, rendering

After the production is completed, computer calculation is needed to get the final three-dimensional image. The process of calculation is called rendering.

There are many modeling methods in 3dsMax, and the use of materials is also very flexible. To choose different lights in different scenes, the rendering settings are also very changeable.
