this week i struggled to actually get this prodject done. I tried many things and i didnt like them so I trashed them. As the weeks went on and getting ever closer to the deadline i started to panic. after getting a design i liked i added textures. so in retrospect i should have not paniced. i acually made the castle in five minutes and had problems with the video so i hope you enjoy.

Castle_of_awesomeness
This week after i trashed many many designs of my castle i decided to make the courtyard. i will end up building the rest of the castle. ill probably make the entrance to the castle. to make this courtyard i used many boxes. i used a very special tool called the boolean tool to cut a shape out of anouher object. that is how i mase the doors and windows. i used anuother item calle a super spray to make the fountain. after doing all that i forgot to add torches on the wall. after all that im proud of my courtyard

This week we lerned how to use the boolean tool to cut a shape out of anouther object. Smith told us that we had to do the dreded castle project. the castle project is where we have free will to do what ever we want to do to build our castle. my castle is a midevel type castle. these pictures are just the front gate and ill make a merchant district and ill add a church later on.

Week Three - IT'S ALIVE!!!!!

Week_3
Mr.Smith showed us how to do camera angles but it would take to long to render out so I decided to give a picture. I learned how to do a 360 pan around and how to get different camera angles. We learned how to draw one half of a goblet and spin it around an axis to get a full 3D image. That is exactly what I did to make the stand and the martini glass. Mr.Smith showed us how to make an object and attach it to a track that we made. This is what i did in animation class this week.

Week Two - Gears Are a Rolling

This is the second week of animation. It was complicated at first, but thenit got very easy as the week went on. Mr Smith told us to play with thea program so i decided to make a zombie but one thing after anouther it ended up as a Scuba Sam. The next day Smith tought us lighting and that is why the picture is red and Sam looks very demonic but that gives him personallity. The vertical lines show that Sam is closer than he really is. The reflection on the tubes makes them look like metal and make Sam look like a metal statue painted to look like wood. the third image is BIg Baby and i got the idea from my friend in class

Week One - Just Getting Started

I like this picture because when i see it my eyes revert to the zombie in the hoodie. Another way I like this is the space and distance between the zombies and the monroeville building in the background. It is interesting that they emphisis the zombies in the foreground. Ican tell that the artist positioned the zombies in the foregrond, so they look like they're surronding the building and enclosing on the target. I like how the artist used color to give the sence that the world is ending and there is no hope for the humans that used to be. It looks like its the end for the surrvivor.
