Academic Integrity

� Read the web page!

� But basically:

� You need to do your own thinking, writing, and

programmingprogramming

� You should discuss the course material with other

people in the class, but you cannot give away how

to do the homeworks or projects

Representation + comp. models

� Shapes + materials + appearances

� Motions + behaviors

� Representations: specifications

� Comp. models: realizations

2D/3D models

images + video

etc…
