A tool to create 3D animation films

The aim of this study is to have know how on creating 3D animation films, discipline 3D animation film generation process and develop a sample tool to create 3D animation films. Current 3D animation film industry use computers that have built in graphics engines and dedicated for this purpose. Uncommonly, underlying hardware is produced specifically for the software to produce films. Most of these computers are operated on Sun Systems and have costs in million dollars rank. It is not possible to reduce these requirements for a personal computer unless this generation process taken under control. 3D animation film generation process can be managed by applying standard SDLC (Software Development Life Cycle). However, execution step requires a robust IDE (Integrated Development Environment) and built in graphics engine that provides abstraction on rendering details and let user to take care about big picture. Development environment code named as ?Weendigo?. Weendigo is a Red Indian belief on migration of the human beings' capabilities, courage, power, and skills when he was eaten by another human being. Pneuma is the vital spirit which makes men the most valuable creature in the world. By the way, Weendigo refers to development environment and Pneuma is the name of the underlying graphics engine. Weendigo has a component based architecture that allows add or remove components at runtime by implementing some interfaces. Therefore Weendigo gathers all skills and capabilities from the components added and pneuma let them born. Also this functionality provides different points of view for the people have different roles in this process which will lead to discipline from beginning to end.
