Computer-generated imagery (CGI) is the application of
computer graphics to create or contribute to images in art, printed media,
video games, films, television programs, commercials, and simulators. The
visual scenes may be dynamic or static, and may be two-dimensional (2D), though
the term "CGI" is most commonly used to refer to 3D computer graphics
used for creating scenes or special effects in films and television.
CGI is used because it is often cheaper than physical
methods, such as constructing elaborate miniatures for effects shots or hiring
a great deal of extras for crowd scenes, and because it allows the creation of
images that would not be feasible using any other method. It can also allow a
single artist to produce content without the use of actors or other
contributors to the project.
