Abstract: One embodiment of the invention sets forth a mechanism for displaying lighting values associated with a 3-D graphics model by superimposing an overlay grid with lighting values on the 3-D graphics model. A software rendering engine computes lighting values for each frame that includes the 3-D graphics model, where each frame may have different lighting settings. An overlay grid with lighting values may be superimposed on an area defined by a light meter on the 3-D graphics model. The lighting values on the overlay grid are associated with the light meter and may vary frame-over-frame. In another embodiment, a JPEG image with a superimposed overlay grid with per-pixel lighting values covering a 3-D graphics model is generated for each frame that includes the 3-D graphics model. These JPEG images may be displayed on the screen and stored to an external memory.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for providing a view of a three-dimensional computer animation model, the view including one or more objects, wherein each of the one or more objects is associated with a respective animation setting for adjusting a respective three-dimensional motion trajectory interpolation of the object in the computer animation model between a first and a different second key frame; receiving data describing a user interaction with a visual representation of the animation setting in the view for a first object of the one or more objects, the user interaction being an adjustment of the respective animation setting of the first object; and based on the receiving, adjusting the motion trajectory interpolation of the first object between the particular first and second key frames.
