Shading
Each point on an object's surface has to get a certain color value. This color value can be created in many different ways. A point on the surface can get brighter from the influence of light or even by a simple formula. The process of calling the functions to calculate the color of the surface point is called shading. There are shading processes for creating as realistic looking surfaces as possible, yet there are also shading processes for different results, like Toon Shaders.
