CG 300

3D Environment and Level Design (3 Cr.)

Prerequisite: CG 275

Description: This course introduces students to the principles of 3D environment design. Theatrical sets, architectural simulations, and level design will all be considered. In order to provide students with a broader skill set, this course also presents the “mechanics” of how to use another 3D animation program, with an emphasis on the unique strengths of the package. Students will explore the comparative strengths of different software packages and the impact that this has on workflow. The course will emphasize critical thinking skills and strategies for tool selection.
