Session
1
In
this class we cover the basics of Lightwave, polygon vs point
selection, moving objects, how Layout and Modeler work together,
aiming lights and cameras with nulls, and basic rendering. Homework
will be to build a city using the primitve creation tools(box,
ball, etc). The city model will be put in Layout and you will
position a camera in the somewhere scene. Put your file folder
in my drop-off folder before next class.
The
folder should be named with your last name and ID # and contain:
An Objects folder containing your City.lwo object
A Scenes folder containing your City.lws scene
