1. 3D Modeling:
- Creating 3D models of objects, characters, environments, or any other elements needed for a project.
- This can include high-poly models for detailed rendering or low-poly models for real-time applications like games.
2. Texturing:
- Applying textures to 3D models to give them realistic surfaces, such as wood, metal, fabric, skin, etc.
- Artists can create custom textures or use pre-made materials to achieve the desired look.
3. Animation:
- Bringing 3D models to life through movement.
- This includes character animation, object animation, motion graphics, and visual effects.
4. Game Assets:
- Designing and modeling 3D assets for video games.
- This includes characters, environments, props, weapons, and vehicles.
5. Rigging:
- Setting up the skeletal structure of characters or objects so they can be animated.
- This involves creating bones, joints, and controls for realistic movement.
6. Rendering:
- Generating high-quality images or animations from 3D scenes.
- Artists use rendering software to produce photorealistic visuals with lighting, shadows, and textures.
7. Architectural Visualization:
- Creating 3D models and renderings of architectural designs.
- This is often used for presenting building designs, interiors, and landscaping before construction.
8. Product Visualization:
- Creating 3D models and renderings of products for marketing or prototyping purposes.
- This helps showcase products from different angles, with various materials and lighting condition
9. Character Design:
- Designing and modeling 3D characters for games, animations, or illustrations.
- Artists create characters with unique appearances, personalities, and expressions.
10. Custom Services:
- Many 3D artists offer custom services tailored to specific project needs.
- This could include character sculpting, vehicle design, environment concept art, and more.
