Abstract

In the last years digital representation had influenced the whole architectural design starting from the conception of ideas up to the building drawing. Some new tools of 3D modelling have approached the terms of drawing and design, leading them again to the etymological root, the Latin word designo (which meant both to draw and to design). The introduction of the dimension “time” into the traditionally static representation methods constituted a new powerful medium both in concept phase and in communication of design. As new medium, architectural animation, is related to many disciplines, like Communication Sciences and Cinema Engineering and have to face to the traditional and consolidate peculiarities and techniques of film production. This engages critical discussions on the ontological nature of films, on their narrative form, on their character of exploration of human emotions and involves the attention of architectural movies about perceptive aspects produced by the dialectic relationship between people and space. The high complexity in creating and animating three-dimensional digital models has to face an unusual separation of jobs and responsibilities between atelier activities and modelling / rendering / animating / compositing works. The relationship between atelier and rendering studios is accomplished in different ways: sometimes is made out of the atelier only the video compositing, some other the whole 3D work modelling. For this reason, sometimes, rendered images of 3D models and video haven’t the same efficacy and don’t transmit the same message of other graphic works produced inside the atelier. Moreover specific creative languages and visual communication styles characterize the work of the main rendering studios overlapping to the architects’ languages and styles.
