Digital Sculptors from Avatar at this Months Los Angeles Siggraph!
Tuesday, February 9th–
The Los Angeles Chapter of ACM SIGGRAPH presents: “Digital Sculpture”
One computer graphics discipline becoming prevalent and widely used throughout the creative industry is digital modeling and sculpting. The artists/presenters will show quick sculpt and texturing techniques.
Modeling has undergone profound changes since early techniques and the programs utilized by the artists/presenters have changed the way we think of modeling, using traditional concepts such as gesture, form, weight, gravity and design to create the model.
