Virtual Worlds is a general discussion of digital worlds populated with 3D digital objects. 3D Building Blocks is about the geometry, material, lights, animation tools, and Dynamics engines that build virtual worlds, Rendering Images examines the process of synthesizing the virtual world into a visual digital image, and 3D Capture looks at the tools and methods used to capture ‘real world’ shape and color.
