Twentieth Week Blog Post for Project




Project Blog Week Twenty:

This is my twentieth blog post for my modelling project, I moved on to create another object and this time I thought I would make an early learning toy for young kids (3+). I had a look on the internet to see what toys are out there and I found that there were mobile phones for kids  5+ which I thought would be good to make. The first tasks were to make the back case and the phone itself, so I first stretched out and thinned a square cube to form the right phone shape, then I duplicated it and made it bigger to form the case which I put on the back of the phone. The next thing I did was to select the front face of the phone then click the extrude button and deselect the selected face, I then shrunk it in and pushed down slightly to form the screen of the phone. The second task was to add in all the buttons to the phone, so I started with the home button by shrinking and thinning down a sphere to the right size which I put into place. Then I used a torus to form the outer section around the button, after this I made the back button simply by putting down a small plane then UV mapped an image onto it which formed the back arrow button. I used the same process for forming the question mark button. I also added in a microphone using a cylinder and a symbol for this to the bottom right hand side of the phone. Next I moved to the top of the phone to create the two top buttons which I made out of two shrunken and thinned spheres and then I added planes to the spheres and UV mapped images on to them, one was a microphone symbol and the other a camera symbol. The third task was to create a camera this was done by slotting in a cube and adding in a sphere shape which I then extruded part of the face inwards and fitted it into the cube. The final thing was to colour the phone, so for the case I used a diffused pink, for the phone I chose white. The home button was black and light grey, for the top buttons I chose a glossy pink and finally the camera surround was coloured in a glossy grey and the camera itself was a glossy black with a glossy pink outer ring. I then duplicated the phone to create a second which I changed from a pink case to a blue and the glossy pink sections to a glossy blue colour.

Twenty Five Week Blog Post for Project

Project Blog Week Twenty Five: This  is my twenty fifth blog post for my modelling project, o n the  previous blog post I had completed all of the toys that I needed to make for my toy shop scene.  I now decided to move on to animating some of these toys so that they would really standout. I had  already     a nimated the two UFO's and the train. The train simply moves across the screen and so does one of the UFOs, the other UFO has a little alien coming out of the space ship and descending to the ground, he observes the area around him and then  goes back up into his ship. The first toys I decided to animate were my three aeroplanes which I did simply by making one take off and the other two land. After this I moved on to the toy cars that I had made for young children and decided it would be a good idea for the cars to race each other. I also did this for the more advanced remote controlled sports cars, as well as this I tilted th...

Twenty Four Week Blog Post for Project

Project Blog Week Twenty Four: This  is my twenty fourth blog post for my modelling project, o n the  previous blog post I had completed the two toy trucks to go in to the toy shop scene, I now decided to move on to create another toy. I looked at all of the toys I had already made and I realized that I didn't have many toys for girls, so I thought it would be a good to create one although I hadn't got any idea of what toy to make. I went on to the internet to see what toy I could create and I found soft toy elephants which were for young girls, so I decided to go with this toy. I started to create one of these elephants in the same way I created the teddy bears, simply because they were both in a sitting position and I thought it made sense to use the same tutorial again to help me make the basic body shape and the fur, leaving me to make the other bits from scratch. The first task, like the bears, was for me to create spheres for the head, body, legs, eyes and ears. I t...

Twenty Seven Week Blog Post for Project

Project Blog Week Twenty Seven: This  is my twenty seventh blog post for my modelling project, o n the previous blog post I had setup animation for most of the toys. I have now completed this by animating the teddy bears and soft toy elephants, for this I added in a ball for them the throw to each other. I also animated the four animals without fur making them charge toward the camera. This is the last blog post for my project as I only had to put in the final touches and then render all of the scenes. Firstly I decided to dull down the cars and the trucks because I wanted them to look more like plastic toys and not so metallic. As well as this I grouped all of the objects that I had made into seven scenes, which I will talk about in more detail in my power point. Secondly I had to set up all the backgrounds for each of the scenes, then I went on to check the lighting in all of my prepared scenes, making sure that the light was correct so that all of the objects could be clea...
