Aesthetic 3D Lighting: History, Theory, and Application delves into
the history, the theory, and the practical and aesthetic
application of lighting in the fine arts and 3D animation. In this
book, animation industry veteran and lighting expert Lee Lanier
examines the importance of lighting and its ability to communicate
information to the viewer. Lee examines the history of lighting as
applied to the fine arts, film, photography, and 3D animation. He
discusses the use of light color, light location and direction, and
light shadow types to recreate specific locations and to generate
moods. He includes guides for successful lighting in 3D animation.
Software-agnostic examples lead you through useful 3D lighting
set-ups. Chapter-long case studies step you through more complex 3D
lighting projects in Autodesk Maya. An accompanying eResource
(www.routledge.com/9781138737570) features 3D model files, scene
files, and texture bitmaps, allowing you to practice the discussed
techniques in Autodesk Maya and many other 3D programs. The
lighting techniques covered in this book include: History of
lighting as used in the fine arts The scientific mechanisms of
light Light types and light application in 3D programs Light
qualities including shadows variations Basic and advanced 3D
lighting approaches 1-, 2-, 3-point, naturalistic, and stylistic
lighting techniques Replication of real-world lighting scenarios
and locations Overview of advanced 3D lighting and rendering
systems
Les lettres de Charles Gounod a la duchesse Colonna, sculptrice de
renom sous le pseudonyme de Marcello, sont d'un immense interet. De
caractere intime, elles offrent egalement des informations sur les
projets du compositeur (dont un opera inacheve d'apres l'histoire
de Francesca da Rimini), les details materiels de son activite, son
manque d'inspiration, ainsi que sur ses conceptions esthetiques et
philosophiques. Entre la creation de Romeo et Juliette en 1867 et
la fuite de Gounod en Angleterre en 1870, les deux amis partagent
leurs joies et leurs preoccupations tant artistiques que
personnelles. Cet echange epistolaire enrichit considerablement la
comprehension de la personnalite humaine et creatrice de Gounod,
ainsi que de son milieu culturel.
