In animation, a deformer based on a lattice deformer that provides smoothing effects around joints.
Industry:Software
In animation, a deformer based on a sculpt deformer that provides rounded deformation effects around joints.
Industry:Software
In animation, the assignment of a particular set of values to an object’s attributes (for example, translate, rotate, scale, color, and so on) at a specific time (or frame).
Industry:Software
In animation, a method of simulating body mechanics by setting up and animating skeletons. The two main types of kinematics are forward kinematics (FK), and inverse kinematics (IK).
Industry:Software
A graphical representation of the relationships between connected nodes, viewable from the Hypergraph window. For any particular node, the dependency graph shows the node’s history, including all connected nodes and their connected nodes.
Unlike the DAG, these relationships can be cyclic, and do not represent a parenting relationship. Instead, the connections in the graph allow data to move from one entity in the graph to another. The entities in the graph which accept and output data are called dependency graph nodes.
Industry:Software
The distance of objects from the camera. Also known as Z depth channel or Z buffer channel.
Industry:Software
In rendering, an image file that represents the distance from a specific light source to the surfaces that the light source illuminates, from the point of view of the light source. Each pixel in the depth map represents the distance from the light to the nearest shadow-casting surface in a specific direction. Depth mapping is one way to produce shadows.
Industry:Software
In animation, a deformer that surrounds a deformable object with a structure of points (lattice) that can be manipulated to change the object’s shape. Also known as FFD or Lattice SOP > Lattice Mode.
Industry:Software
A window that helps you organize large-scale pieces of the scene so you can show, hide, or edit them all at once.
Industry:Software
In Adobe Photoshop, a collection of layers that helps you better organize and manage layers. Use layer sets to easily move layers as a group, to apply attributes and masks to groups of layers, or to reduce clutter in the Layers palette.
