What is 3D modelling?
Any surface or object can be represented in three dimensions by manipulating polygons, edges, and vertices in a fictitious three-dimensional space.
Whats are 3D modelling approaches used in the animation industry
1.Box modelling
2.Digital sculpting
3.Boolean modelling
4.NURBS modelling
What is Box modelling
Box modelling is a three-dimensional modelling technique. A fundamental shape, such as a box
What is Digital sculpting
Digital sculpting is a similar method to clay modelling in real life. This method produces high-resolution models, but they cannot be used directly in 3D animations. Instead, a low-resolution retopology model must be created.
What is Boolean modelling
Boolean operations in 3D modelling refer to adding, subtracting, and forming intersections and unions of objects. In Blender, the Boolean modifier allows you to make changes to meshes in a few steps that would otherwise be difficult to do by hand. It combines two mesh objects into a single mesh object by using one of the three available Boolean operators.
What is NURBS modelling
A simple two-dimensional line, circle, arc, or curve can be effectively represented by NURBS (non-uniform rational B-splines), which are mathematical models of three-dimensional geometry. NURBS can accurately depict even the most complex, organic, free-form surface or solid.
Name the three parts a object consists of
1.Vertices
2.Edges
3.Faces
Poly Build
Tool interactively applies a variety of constructed operators to add, remove, or move geometry.
Spin
The selected elements are rotated around a given point and axis while being extruded (or duplicated, if the selection is multiple) by the Spin tool.
Smooth
By averaging the angles between the faces, this tool smooths the chosen vertices.
Edge Slide
The Edge Slide moves a selected edge from an adjacent face, but restricts which edges can be used.
What are modifiers?
Automatic operations that have no destructive effects on the geometry of an object.
