    Part A: Researches Step A Out of the countless number of examples of 3D animations I could have chosen for this paper, I decided to choose a 360 Virtual Reality animation for Star Wars (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6uG9vtckp1U). This animation puts the viewer on a spaceship and gives them full access to all the surroundings and gives them a challenge to find a set of given items throughout the video. If you watch it on your smartphone, you can use the built in accelerator to move around in VR, and if you use your computer you can use either the arrow keys or the mouse.

The objects that are used in this animation don’t have a lot of detail except for the spaceships and Darth Vader himself. The skinning and boning done on Darth Vader is flawless, his hands and feet move without any problems and it gives him a decent walking animation.

To render in 360 degrees in 3ds Max, mental ray can be used, as long as you apply “WrapAround” for the lens in Camera Shaders in the Render Setup and chose a fairly large aspect ratio. There appears to be a lot of Stormtroopers in the animation all lined up to welcome Darth Vader, time and detail was put to create one perfect Stormtrooper and the rest were just copied and pasted. The boxes used in the…

    Greatness is only rewarded to those who seek it, not to those who wait for it to be handed out. Accordingly, producing movies based on great works of literature means translating the original work into something that not only has a great moral, but that is also visually captivating throughout the entire duration of the film. Beowulf the poem was published by an anonymous author in the 900’s and reflects the Anglo-Saxon civilization which had just recently converted to Christianity at the time of…

    Early within the film you would also notice that stop-motion animation is a little “jerky” but, when comparing the film to other films of the time being released, King Kong (1933) is rather glamorously and brilliantly crafted for its era. The majority of the film was created by the use of stop-motion animation puppets. These puppets were made of metal, ball-and-socket skeleton armatures, covered with cotton dental dam, latex rubber and rabbit fur. To create the expressions of the Ape, wires were…
