Digital Art
Digital art can be broadly defined as art created by a computer and stored in a digital format. Digital art can be purely computer generated, taken from another source such as scanned photographs, or drawn images using vector graphics software.

In digital art 3D graphics are created through designing complex imagery from geometric shapes to create realistic 3 dimensional shapes, objects or scenes. 3D graphics are used in various media such as film, television, print and special effects.
