Three-dimensional (3D) graphics are used to create realistic, three-dimensional images and animations. 3D graphics are used in a wide variety of industries, including film, television, video games, and architecture. There are many different ways to create 3D graphics, but one of the most popular methods is to use a computer program called a 3D modeling software. 3D modeling software allows users to create 3D objects by manipulating vertices, edges, and faces. Once a 3D object has been created, it can be textured, lit, and animated.
