Tvorba 3D stylizované postavy použitelné pro profesionální animaci

This bachelor thesis is focused on describing the process of creating 3D stylized character used in 3D animation. The goal is to introduce the reader to the various methods on which this entire process relies, while also utilizing the most optimal technologies to achieve the best results. The theoretical part should serve primarily as a technical background for understanding the issues of topics such as concept creation, character modeling, digital sculpting, topology and retopology, UV mapping, texture painting, rigging, skinning, and weight painting. This part deals with these topics as technically and generally as possible to provide the reader with an understanding of the individual steps for the following section. At the same time, this part emphasizes the connection between artistic and technical knowledge, which is important in each phase of the process. The practical part of this work then builds on the knowledge from the theoretical part and demonstrates a replicable process, using workflows practiced by the author, in order to shorten the process time and optimize it. At the same time, this part of the process is gradually demonstrated in the creation of a character for a real-world commission, and the text also captures common problems encountered during this creation.
