Applications of 3d

CGI is used in many industries that aren't just TV or film, it is underestimated in how much it is used and how many jobs it is used in. It is used in architecture, gaming, education, advertising, medical and many more.

It is used in advertising either for the actual advert if they animate the advert or nearly all adverts have logos so they use CGI for something as simple as doing their logo just at the end of it because its better than filming a picture of their logo. But as you can see in this image they use CGI to make it look like the dog is baking the cake for its owner to come down, they would have to use CGI because you can't train a dog to do a pose like that.


This is another example of CGI but this time used in gaming. All games are made using CGI because it is a virtual world that is created by a massive team of animators, so everything you see in a game is CGI, they do use models of people to make the faces and bodies to make it easier to model the people. This would take a long time to make because of the amount of detail with it being for games consoles like Xbox Playstation and PC where as a game like 'Doodle Jump' would of taken next to no time at all with it being such a basic and easy game.


Architects also use CGI. This is an example from the MAXON website that an architect has produced, this can be used for a proposal and say to contractors this is my idea for what I want the room too look like. They will also have more rooms than this ready for them to see and if the contractor says to change something they can easier than building it then not liking it, also it is easier for the builders because they can see what to put it and where so it is a good tool for architects.

Sometimes CGI can be used for something as basic and fun like just general art. Someone has just decided to make this in some free time for some fun or maybe for a wall decoration. It is just a new version of modern art, it still takes a lot of talent but not as a job or they don't have a deadline to get it done they just do it whenever they feel like, they could then make it into a film or game if they choose to but they don't always have to.
