Cartoon rendering, also called cel shading or toon shading, is a non-photorealistic rendering technique used to give 3D computer graphics a flat, cartoon-like appearance. Its defining feature is the use of distinct shading colors rather than smooth gradients, producing a look reminiscent of comic books or animated films.
Matter: Creation of materials and rendering images for output. Standard features included 2D and 3D textures, field rendering, fog, motion blur , and raytracing. Tools: Utilities for viewing, editing, and compositing rendered image sequences, color reduction, and importing/exporting images and 3D geometry.
An example of computer animation which is produced from the "motion capture" techniqueComputer animation is the process used for digitally generating moving images. The more general term computer-generated imagery (CGI) encompasses both still images and moving images, while computer animation only refers to moving images.
Unveiled at the 1988 SIGGRAPH convention, it was the first live performance of a digital character. Mike was a sophisticated talking head driven by a specially built controller that allowed a single puppeteer to control many parameters of the character's face, including mouth, eyes, expression, and head position.

Computer graphics is a core technology in digital photography, film, video games, digital art, cell phone and computer displays, and many specialized applications.
The software was presented in 1999 at SIGGRAPH. [6] The demo version, 1.55, was released in 2003, [7] and version 3.1 was released in 2007. [8] ZBrush 4 for Windows and Mac systems was announced on April 21, 2009 for an August release, [9] but was later postponed. [10]
SIGGRAPH (Special Interest Group on Computer Graphics and Interactive Techniques) is an annual conference centered around computer graphics organized by ACM, starting in 1974 in Boulder, CO. The main conference is usually held in North America though is not limited in location possibilities; SIGGRAPH Asia, a second conference held annually, has ...
