In Blender, what is a modifer?

The process for positioning UV islands

Blender's name for a material

The name of Blender's rendering engine

A component that can be applied to objects to manipulate them

Why do we create high and low poly versions of a model

So that you can look at the model up close without it looking blocky

To bake details onto the lower poly version so it performs better in games

To bake details onto the higher poly object so that games look better

It is good for practicing modeling

How do UVs relate to textures

They are one in the same.

They tell the model how to bounce light.

They tell the model where to look on the texture map for each vertex.

They determine which texture to use.

When modeling in blender what are the two modes?

Object mode and Edit mode

Sculpt mode and Edit mode

Selection mode and the Hierarchy

Selection mode and Mesh mode

Why do we use quads when modeling

GPUs only understand quads.

We don't

Because they create easy to manipulate edge loops and are somple to subdivide

They are the simplest always-planar 3D shape

What tool do we use to subdivide the mesh under the brush when sculpting

Fractalize

Subdivision-Surface

Entity Component System

Dynotopo

What is the difference between a normal map and a height map

A normal map tells the renderer how much to offset/displace the vertices of an object, where as a height map tells the renderer how to bounce the light off the object

A normal map tells the renderer how to bounce light off the object, where as a height map tells the renderer how much to offset/displace the vertices of an object

A height map is only used for terrain and normal maps are used for everything else

A height map is used for displacement and a normal map is used for surface roughness

What is a vertex?

Any non-normalized arbitrary vector

A line connecting two points

A surface made of multiple lines

A point in 3D space that holds data about a model

What is a UV map?

A projection of a 3D model onto a 2D coordinate plane

Its the same thing as a texture

An image that tells the GPU how much to offset a vertex

A map that controls the direction of light bounce

Why are triangles used in computer graphics?

Graphics programmers like the number 3

They make nice edge loops

They arent

They are the most concise primitive that is always planar

Select the following that are true regarding concept art.

Concept art is used as a guide for shape, scale, and size

Concept art is meant to be followed strictly

Concept art should convey the art style of the project

Concept art shows details that should be added to the model

What does extrude do when modeling?

Collapse selected vertices together

Connect gaps with a new face

Adds a ring of edges around the model

Creates a new vert, edge, or face and allows you to position it

What is a material?

A collection of textures or values that can be applied to an object to refine its appearance

GPU code that tells the renderer how to draw an image

A projection of a 3D model onto a 2D planar surface

A single image that can be used to describe a specific aspet of the model, such as identifying the smooth areas
