First, 2D software:
1, Adobe Photoshop, referred to as "PS", is an image processing software developed and distributed by Adobe Systems. Photoshop mainly deals with digital images composed of pixels. With its numerous editing and drawing tools, you can edit pictures effectively. Ps has many functions, including pictures, graphics, text, video, publishing and so on.
2.Adobe illustrator is an industry standard vector illustration software for publishing, multimedia and online images. As an excellent image processing tool, Adobe Illustrator is widely used in printing and publishing, poster book typesetting, professional illustration, multimedia image processing and Internet page making. It can also provide high precision and control for line drawing, and is suitable for making any small design to large-scale complex projects.
3.CorelDRAW Graphics Suite is the graphic design software of Corel Company in Canada. This software is a vector graphics production tool software produced by Corel Company. This graphic tool provides designers with many functions, such as vector animation, page design, website production, bitmap editing, webpage animation and so on.
Second, the 3D software:
1, Rhino Chinese name Rhino, is a powerful three-dimensional modeling tool, with a volume of only tens of megabytes and low hardware requirements. But don't underestimate it, it contains all the modeling functions of NURBS, and modeling with it feels very smooth, so people often use it to model, and then export high-precision models to other three-dimensional software.
2.3D Studio MAX, usually called 3dMAX [1] or max, is a 3D animation rendering and production software based on PC system developed by Discreet company (later merged by Autodesk company). Its predecessor is 3D Studio series software based on DOS operating system. Before the appearance of Windows NT, industrial CG production was monopolized by SGI graphics workstation.
Among them, 3Dmax is the most demanding computer. You can learn product design with a computer that can run 3Dmax.
3DMAX hardware requirements:
1, Intel or AMD processor, clocked at least 1GB (dual Intel Xeon processor or dual AMD Athlon system is recommended.
2, 5 12 memory, at least 500MB hard disk swap space (recommended 1GB memory, 2GB hard disk swap space.
3. Graphics card 1024 * 768 16-bit color memory (requires OpenGL and Direct3D hardware acceleration; 256MB memory, recommended 1280 * 1024 24-bit color 3D graphics accelerator.
These are the minimum configuration requirements. The higher the computer configuration, the higher the efficiency and speed of using 3Dmax for coloring, video and modeling. Therefore, it is more appropriate to recommend a computer with a minimum configuration higher than 3Dmax.
