Welcome to STUDIO 282- the Parish Episcopal School 3D Modeling & Animation webpage. Studio 282 represents the latest exciting curriuculum offering that allows students to delve into the world of 3D modeling and animation using a professional and popular computer application. Students interested in character animation, architecture, advertising or general computer graphics art, are encouraged to enroll.

Maxon

Currently, the students are using the popular professional 3D modeling and animation application Cinema 4D, created by MAXON. The application is used for 3D modeling, architectural design, cinema FX, advertising and character animation. Please visit the Gallery showing some of our students' works.

Computer-Aided Design: 3D Computer Graphics Studio

The courses offered are open to upper school students and are currently trimester in length. Students who continue to be interested in 3D modeling and animation may continue their education by taking more advanced courses and working on independent animation projects. Students learn to use a professional 3D Modeling and Animation program to explore:


>>> 3D Modeling & Animation: Students learn to create objects in 3D space. This involves instruction in character, architectural and abstract design and materials application that ranges from abstract, cartoonish to photorealistic images/models.
>>> Architectural Design: Fundamentals of interior and exterior design are discussed and explored. Structural design and visualization is the primary focus.
>>> Character Animation & Visual FX: Animations that range from character animation (think Finding Nemo) to physics simulations are explored. Proper character rigging and advanced modeling is emphasized. Other special effects techniques such as blue/green screen FX, voice synching, etc. are introduced. Short movies/animations are also created.
>>> Independent CG Project: Students work on a pre-approved CG project.
