  7. What is Computer Graphics ?

  8. Computer Graphics • “Computer Graphics is concerned with producing images (or animations) using a computer.” rendering modeling DISPLAY WORLD MODEL

  11. Wireframe Model Skeletal Model Muscle Model © Walt Disney and TSL Hair Render and Touch up Skin

  12. Spacewars: first computer graphics game (MIT 1961) Whirlwind: early graphics using VectorScope (1951) first CAD system (IBM 1959) SketchPad: first interactive graphics (1961)

  13. Early texture-mapped image (Catmull 1974) First bump-mapped images (Blinn 1978) First ray traced image (Whitted 1980) First distributed ray traced image (Cook 1984)

  14. Westworld (1973) First production movie to feature computer graphics. Used in various graphics displays within the Westworld center.

  15. Star Wars (1977)

  16. Tron (1980) First time computer graphics were used for live action sequences.

  17. Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan, genesis effect (1983) The Last Starfighter (15 minutes) (1982)

  18. Applications of Computer Graphics

  19. Movies Fully computer generated animated features

  20. Movies Special Effects… in Live Action Cinema

  21. Movies • “Traditional” Animated Features… • Some examples: • Automating Keyframing in many Disney-type animations • The flocking behaviour of the wilderbeest in Lion King • Non photorealistic rendering: 3D effects in Futurama

  22. Behind the scenes on Antz Production Number of frames in the movie 119,592 Number of times the movie was rendered during production 15 (approx.) Number of feet of approved animation produced in a week 107 ft. Total number of hours of rendering per week 275,000 hrs. Average size of the frame rendered 6 MB Total number of Silicon Graphics servers used for rendering 270 Number of desktop systems used in production 166 Total Number of processors used for rendering 700 Average amount of memory per processor 256 MB Time it would have taken to render this movie on 1 processor 54 yrs., 222 days, 15 mins., 36 secs. Amount of storage required for the movie 3.2 TB Amount of frames kept online at any given time 75000 frames Time to re-film out final cut beginning to end 41.5 days (997 hrs.)
