Dimensionality — the full vocabulary
This page is generated. Do not edit it by hand — run
scripts/atlas-vocab.py.
There are 2 registered values and nothing in use outside them.
Where it is stored: nowhere yet. The vocabulary is registered and nothing writes it — that is work not done, not a fault in the model.
What this axis answers
— no definition written yet.
The values
A bold value carries more than its row — tagging rules, a confusion map, or worked examples — and has its own entry under “Value details” below.
| Value | Stored as | In use | What it means |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2D | 2d | — | Identity facet (multi-value M:N): 2D rendering dimensionality (CD2-C; "2D Animation" survives as a canonical LENS, not a tree row) |
| 3D | 3d | — | Identity facet (multi-value M:N): 3D rendering dimensionality (CD2-C; "3D Animation" survives as a canonical LENS, not a tree row) |
Value details
2D
2d · not used yet · kind: dimensionality
Identity facet (multi-value M:N): 2D rendering dimensionality (CD2-C; "2D Animation" survives as a canonical LENS, not a tree row)
Tag it when — The rendered space reads flat/planar (vector, cel, flat motion graphics). Multi-value: a piece may carry BOTH 2d and 3d.
Never tag it when — No mixed value exists — a live-action+animation blend is craft-level Mixed Media (N9); dimensionality stays per-claim 2d and/or 3d.
Easily mistaken for:
- dimensionality.3d
Worked examples:
- flat vector explainer
- 2D character spot
3D
3d · not used yet · kind: dimensionality
Identity facet (multi-value M:N): 3D rendering dimensionality (CD2-C; "3D Animation" survives as a canonical LENS, not a tree row)
Tag it when — The rendered space reads volumetric/3D (CG, 3D renders, dimensional type). Multi-value: a piece may carry BOTH 2d and 3d.
Never tag it when — No mixed value exists — blends carry both chips; craft-level Mixed Media covers live-action+animation hybrids (N9).
Easily mistaken for:
- dimensionality.2d
- material.photoreal (finish, not space)
Worked examples:
- 3D product render sequence
- CG character film
Registered, never used
2 of the 2 registered values have never been written to a row. For a young axis that is expected; for an old one it is a question worth asking.
2d, 3d
How complete this page is
Of 2 registered values, 2 carry a written definition (100%) and 2 carry tagging rules (100%). Every number on this page was counted from the live database when the page was generated — none is stored, and none was typed by hand.
