Here to read a brief descriptions of the type of special effects graphics
we will be covering, and also enjoy the video to the right, which practically
sums up it's history. This time we will take a look into what Computer
Generated Imagery (CGI) are and the process of creating this type of special
effect. What can be as something a little obvious, is that the
three-dimensional images will be created by computer compositions software. The
process is one similar to using green or blue screens to incorporate what is
real with what is not. Although it can be compared to that, it is most
definitely not the same since CGI graphics are represented and translated
through the computer screen. What distinguishes this effects over others
is precisely that a scene for a film, game, short, etc., are cut and paste of
bits and pieces until the creation of the panorama. This process can actually be done with out
the need of actors, sets, miniatures, etc., and still be possible of making
beautiful movement and special effect images.
Some perks and
advantages that over time have been added in the graphics to facilitate the
flows and movements, making them more real to the eye. Big corporations and
companies such as Xsens and Digital District make and
construct their projects and work around CGI technologies. They do provide some
of the best special effects that look so real you would not even believe it.
They offer a variety of software that deal with these types of special effects
and from different kind of styles. This next video to the right is a short film
that Digital District made for a Cartier jewelry commercial, which is stunning
and we cannot even notice which are the real images and which are the computer
generated images. I promise this short film will astonish and surprise you,
making you to never stop watching it.
