i am learning about the "graphics pipeline". My understanding of the view transformation, is that you:

• need to first create a normalized, separate coordinate system for the camera. Based on its position and orientation in world space
• using those basis vectors, you can transform the world coordinate system into the camera's (by applying the view matrix to each point)
• i believe the change of basis part of the view matrix is derived from the computed vectors of the camera's coordinate system
• i am confused about the translation part. I think this involves moving each vertex in world space by the offset of the camera, effectively making the camera the origin of the vector space

edit: i wish i could actually make a simulation of a grid transforming with the change of basis vector, with the 2 coordinate grids eventually aligning. And then in my head i'm imagining that the objects in the scene are then translated towards the camera (effectively putting the camera at the origin)
