1. Introduction

This is the first course work given by London Metropolitan University of the module “3d
Modelling”. This module helps us to learn about 3d animation drawing how can we
make our 3d animation different types of architects on different subject etc. 3d modelling
a subject where I am obsessed with my all might. I am really into this subject and here
come it course work and I am feeling so much thrilled to do this course work. This is our
first course work on 3d modelling, and the real spice here is it’s an individual course
work. Here we must create some sorts of scenario which we will be animating later
second semester.

2. Concept

The concept of my animated video is indoor based concept. It’s just like giving a house
tour to the viewer. On this animation I want to show the simple structure of house and
its room. The animation duration I think about to create is almost 45-50 second. The
animation is mainly about showing the whole room of house on simple language room
tour.
3. Environment planning sketch

As I already mentioned my whole animation is indoor based. The environment should

be like how real house environment look like. I must show various item inside the house
like bed, table window, fan etc. It’s going to be a simple house with simple features on it.

5. Camera type description

In Maya, there are three different kinds of cameras, which are listed below:
5.1. Camera
This camera rotates freely and can lose track of its 'up' vector. It can be used when the
camera is fixed in a particular spot.

Figure 11 camera

5.2. Camera and aim

This camera contains a target button and an aim handle. The camera may roll and
maintains level by default, except in extreme straight-up or straight-down orientations.

Figure 12 Camera aim

5.3. Camera and aim up
This camera features both an aim handle and an up handle. The Aim and Up handles
aim at the target and level the camera, respectively.

Figure 13 Camera aim and up

6. Camera animation and planning
Maya supports three types of cameras. Cameras are selected based on scene
requirements. In this coursework, two cameras will be utilized. The cameras utilized in
this coursework are:

6.1. Camera and aim

This Camera tools allow you to aim the camera in the current view. Aiming is like
holding the camera to your eye and then pointing up, down, or moving around your
subject to frame elements in the picture. By the help of this camera tool, I can focus on
various parts of car at different time according to the angle.

6.2. Camera aim and up

This camera contains a target button and an aim handle. When pointing at a subject,
this camera allows for movement while maintaining focus.
7. Light types

7.1. Directional light

This is a parallel light from a distant source, described as a direction vector. Directional
light strikes every object from the same angle. Directional light creates shadows that all
face the same direction.

7.2. Point light

A point light releases light equally in all directions, like a light bulb. Shadows point away
from the light in all directions.

7.3. Volume light

Volume light provides a visual depiction of the breadth of the light. Volume lights allow
for precise control over light direction, colour, and decay inside a specific volume.

7.4. Spotlight
Light is emitted from a point by a spotlight. Extra controls not found on other lights are
available on spotlights.

7.5. Area light

Rectangular light sources in two dimensions are called area lights. When compared to
other light sources, area light may take longer to produce.

7.6. Ambient light

Ambient light lights regions that are not immediately lighted by another light source.
8. Light animation planning

8.1. Point Light

Point lights emit light uniformly in all directions, like a bare light bulb or glowing star in
space. By the help of point light the different parts of car could be glowed up and it will
not affect the shadow either.
9. Material type description

There are 5 types of materials which are Lambert, Blinn, Phong, Phong E, and
Anisotropic.

1. Lambert
Lambert is a flat substance that creates a smooth appearance without highlights. It
calculates without considering surface reflectance, resulting in a matte, chalky look.
Lambert substance is perfect for surfaces without highlights, such as ceramics, chalk,
matte paint, and so on.

2. Blinn
The Blinn material type calculates surfaces in a similar way to Phong, except the form of
the specular highlights in Blinn materials reflects light more correctly. Blinn is suitable
for metallic surfaces that have subtle accents.

3.Phong E
Phong E is a quicker rendering variant of Phong that produces softer highlights than
Phong. Most artists use conventional Phong for things with bright highlights and Blinn
for everything else.

4. Phong
To provide correct shading and highlights, the Phong material type considers surface
curvature, light intensity, and camera angle. The algorithm produces crisp highlights that
are ideal for polished, bright surfaces.
10. Material and colour planning

As there are various kinds of objects, different kinds of materials must be used. For
most of the solid objects, which lack reflection and highlights, lambert material must be
used. There are a few sections where objects with highlights and those that reflect light
can be seen in this instance, materials like Phong and Blinn will be going to use. For
the color planning I want it look like a simple house color may be white to the wall.

12. Story board

Scene: 1

The camera zoom into the door as it open.

Wide-Shoot(showing some inside part of house)
Time : 0-4 second

Scene: 2

After enterning into home the camera focus will go

to clock which is showing time with a slight zoom
in.
Close-up shoot
Time: 5-8,9 second

Scene
3

The camera will tilt left to the study room where

we can see a study table and chair.

Wide shoot
Time:10-14 second

Scene 4

After showing wide shoot up study table the

camera will straightly focus on the laptop and
other object that was on the table with zoom in.
Close-up shoot
Time: 14-22 second

Scene 5

After that close shoot the camera will tilt right

and goes up to the new room showing various
object
Mid- shoot
Time: 23-30 second
Scene 6

After showing the first object of the room which

is chair the camera tilt left to the upside up the
room to show the moving fan
Mid-shoot
Time: 31-34

Scene 7
The camera will tilt down from fan to window
where the window will be open and show us
outside scene.
Mid-shoot
Time: 35-38
Scene 8

The camera will tilt left from window to bed.

Mid Shoot
Time: 39-42

At the very last scene the camera will go backward where all the animation
begins.
Second
Semester
Work
Introduction:
This is the second coursework of “3d modelling” assigned by London Metropolitan
University. On first semester we have written a concept about what we are making on
our second semester. I have already shown a whole story board what I am making,
duration of the video, concept pictures etc. In this semester the whole process going to
be how did I do all the course work with the screenshot of the model that I made and

how I made any subject inside maya.

Conclusion

In conclusion, 3D modelling technology has transformed several industries, including

engineering, healthcare, entertainment, and architecture. Its capacity to produce
realistic representations of things, settings, and even human anatomy has significantly
enhanced communication, problem-solving, and visualization skills. In general, 3D
modelling keeps pushing the envelope of imagination and creativity, and its uses are
about to reach new heights, influencing a range of industries as well as how people
engage with technology in the future.
