3-D Digital Effects Concepts

Figure 94. Screen Coordinates

Screen units are also used to define Z axis dimension depth in 3-D space.
Positive Z axis values are back behind the picture, and negative values are
in front of the picture (

Figure 95

).

Figure 95. Viewer Location in 3-D Space

For perspective calculations the factory default viewpoint places the
viewer -16.67 screen units from the monitor screen surface (4 x 3 aspect
ratio). In this case, moving a full screen image 16.67 screen units back
behind the screen makes the picture appear half its normal size to the
viewer.

Size

Picture size is defined relative to picture screen units. A size of 0.50 indi-
cates a picture is one-half its full size.

Rotation

Rotation is measured fractionally with respect to 360°. A value of 0.25 indi-
cates a rotation of 90 degrees; 0.50 indicates 180 degrees (maximum rota-
tion). Rotation values can be positive or negative, which determines the
direction of rotation.
