CG - Potential & Limitations - Aesthetics



Computer generated animation has a very defined and general aesthetic. There are some variation in computer generated aesthetics but i think there is much less variation than other mediums such as hand drawn. I think this is due to the influence of the big CG companies such as Pixar but I'm sure there are different aesthetics for 3d which have not yet been explored. This is something we are trying to do in our project by having a hand painted aesthetic in computer animation. Computer animation Varies from other mediums in animation in that it has almost an aesthetic capacity due to the constant software/hardware changes but these aesthetic changes aren't dramatic.

Pixar type aesthetics are the most thought of for computer animation but video games and special effects for movies have different aesthetics which often includes more realistic looking models and often a less saturated colour scheme.
