3D Modelling
DECO1008
This unit aims to give the student an understanding of the basic concepts of modelling and presentation so that they will develop skills in creating and using 3D models for various design tasks.On the successful completion of this unit of study, students will have: demonstrated an understanding of how physical objects are represented in 3D digital models by modelling various 3D geometric entities and processes required; demonstrated critical judgment, be capable of rigorous and independent thinking and use appropriate information technology techniques to communicate their knowledge through the production of efficient design presentations and documentation; an understanding of boundary representations, solid modelling, parametric models, texture mapping, light sources, camera locations and projections, and model constraints through model development and presentation; acquire skills in using a 3D modelling system for 2D and 3D objects and in creating photorealistic images, movies, VR scenes, and simple animations from 3D models that accurately describe design variations, intent, and structure. These skills will be assessed through the tutorial exercises and the submission of a portfolio of 3D models.This unit is core in the Bachelor of Design Computing.
