Computer-generated imagery, or CGI, is a form of computer graphic design and animation that makes an image appear to be 3D. These images are shown throughout the world of media, industry and business, such as print media, television, films, pictures, commercials, etc. CGI has improved rapidly on software that helps our world improve computer-generated images. CGI software is used to make graphic designs for purposes such as movies in the cinema. CGI and software companies created the age of technology and their computers increased in speed and allowed computer graphics programmers and other companies to make better quality electronic films, games and digital photos on their CPUs or laptops. Because of the new advancement in software technology in CGI and graphic design, it has brought new religious cultures to the Internet, its new experiences, such as celebrities, and a new technological vocabulary. Technological advancement has increased so much that CGI has led to the new beginning or era of virtual film photography. Computer generated imagery has about 7 components, that we know of, as of now, and there may be more that accumulate in CGI, but there may be an advancement later in the next couple of years that will lead to more components that will lead to more will help advance CGI. The big components that we know CGI has, the components that I know about, for now are statistical images and landscapes, architectural scenes, anatomical models, tissue and skin image generation, computer animations and virtual worlds, and I will deconstruct or break them down into detail finer.Statistical images and landscapes, or known as fractal landscapes, and the way this component works is that these statistical images......middle of paper......ki/Sierpinski_triangle http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer-generated_imagery http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Computer_Animation/Computer_Generated_Imagery http://www.mindactive.com/cgi-computer-generated-imagery http:/ /computerstories.net/a-computer-generated-imagery-cgi-history/#_ http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer-generated_imagery http://www.sciencedaily.com/articles/c/computer-generate_imagery.htm http://encyclopedia2.thefreedictionary.com/CGI+animation http://www.wisegeek.com/what-is-computer-animation. htm http://www.princeton.edu/~achaney/tmve/ wiki100k/docs/Computer-generated_imagery.html YOUTUBE SOURCES http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4NPUNGij89U http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VgSiTtGNU0M http://www.youtube.com /watch?v=zUdCf9dbqSw http://www .youtube.com/watch?v=s-Tlxz8mEi4 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DR12jxroiFs http://www.youtube.com/watch? v=0We9gLlVzfU
