Modern video games can create amazingly lifelike characters and worlds. But have you ever wondered how they work behind the scenes? How a bunch of 1s and 0s turn into realistic-looking, even movie-like experiences?
In this class, you'll learn how 3D graphics in video games are generated and rendered. We'll start with 3D modelling and the basic rasterization pipeline, then discuss more advanced topics such as animation, antialiasing, graphics hardware, performance, and physical simulation of fluids, fog, and fire.
