Vector Graphics Composed of objects not pixels Object oriented graphics = vector graphics Stores a series of mathematical equations Vector graphics can be: Edited Scaled Repositioned Recolored Exported as bitmaps
Zooming vector graphics saves: Time Data storage Useful for mapping data Can be easily scaled No quality loss Vector graphics need faster computer processors Mathematically complex equations Curved shapes Constructing to many individual vectors
3D Vector Images Vectors create 3d images Video games Film Television networks Architects use vector graphics in CAD to: Create 3D drawings Develop products Create physics tests The CAD program allows designers to: Create physical properties of 3D modles Weight Strength Material
Graphics In the Movies (CGI) used to create: Animations Special effects Realism Motion capture Textures create realism Balance between detail and mathematical complexity Creates required level of detail (grass) 3D graphic properties: Hardness Reflectivity Smoothness Intensity of light and colors can be added To produce high quality render farms improve it Render farms ( thousands of computers improving processing)
Video Formats Audio Video Interleave : lossy compression MOV : popular of Apple hardware/ created by a digital camera MP4 :more effective lossy compression MWV: Microsoft's video format
Audio Formats ACC: developed by Apple uses lossy compression FLAC: open file format with lossy compression MP3: sharing site uses lossy compression WAV: standard or audio software WMA: Developed by Microsoft supports streamed videos and lossy
Image Formats Bitmap Image: lossless compression Tagged image file format: professionally published/ printed uses lossless compression GIF: its obsolete and uses lossless compression PNG: New lossless format that replaces GIF JPEG: Common lossy file PSD: Adobe’s custom propriety file format RAW/CR2: More colorful information produced by SLR cameras SVG: New format supporting vector graphics
