Lecture 18: Texture

Lecture, Video, AltDelivery

The second video lecture has been posted! This is lecture 18, which would have occurred on March 25th if everything were normal. Which, of course, it isn’t.

I am still getting the hang of making videos. I am hoping they will get better with practice. The segments are still a little longer than I would have hoped.

The topic is texturing, which will be Workbook 9. The JavaScript Tip of the Day is useful for Workbook 8, and the review will give you a concise summary of the last lecture (useful for the Quiz).

The video is in four parts:

  1. Lecture 18A - Introduction (overview, JS tip of the day, review) - 14 mins
  2. Lecture 18B - Basic Texture Mapping Basics - 20 mins
  3. Lecture 18C - Texture Mapping in THREE - 13 mins
  4. Lecture 18D - How Texture Mapping Works - 32 mins

You can have the before or after slides to look at if you want to take notes while your watch.

The Demo that I showed is available online as part of the FrameworkDemos.

The reading that goes along with this lecture is Fundamentals of CG-Ch11.pdf (which will be in Workbook 9). The chapter covers much more than the lecture (some of which we will get to in next week’s lecture).
