Ryders Process

 This project focuses on planning the design of a 3D print with a group, using a structure with no internal support. This challenges us to create something aesthetically pleasing that is structurally strong and won't use sharp angles that grow outwards. We each made our ideations and then chose which print to use, and from there, tested the print.  This was my ideation, but we chose another classmate who looked like this. Our final print did not meet our expectations, but this was a valuable learning opportunity. About 20 percent into the printing process, we discovered a critical issue: the lack of support for the small squares spiralling around the tower. This led to the print's messy lines and broken shape. However, this experience taught us a valuable lesson: design and execution do not always guarantee success. This is a crucial realization for setting realistic expectations in future projects.

  This time around is about refining and crafting our ideas, i updated and created larger sizes for all of my shapes, and will be creating them in class to see how they hold up. March 13th After considering I'm not challenging myself enough, I'm gonna create moving parts for this train  With a gearbox to hold an axis connecting the wheels. This will allow the train to rotate its wheels and add more life to the object. I'm in the process of the experiment. With the hollowing out of the gearbox for the axis. And re-sizing the entire train model a third time. After final cuts from the laser printer, it went to folding and gluing, the choice of colours came together well, and the final look is clean. I could add as many copies to create a full train set. If I were to add touches, it would be to find a better way to make the wheels spin, as the idea did no work as well as planned. The final design looks clean! and I'm glad the revisions of the texture of the cart worked, and...

 Project 6 Papercraft ideations I chose a shipping container and train cart for my project, with the container and train cart, the design allows me to print several copies and link them up, and have a lot of freedom with the different colours of train carts, and even the graffiti designs on the containers. Let me bring up some photos for example.  If I were to keep pursuing this project, I could design the trucks, or even train engines, or container cranes that work with shipping containers.  This project is personally fun because I can pursue the color's of paper while having a good design in mind. Because I'm working on Rhino 7, I'm trying to figure out where the commands are, adding surface to the objects is annoyingly slowing me down. Getting closer to layouts for the different boxes, working on the half-sized containers now and the container carriers. very excited. So far so good, now to print and see how these come together! I'm about to nap on my keyboard so I...

 This week we were assigned more technical problems, using recently learnt commands like explode to separate the surface edges of objects and lay them out on a 2d surface to cut and fold from printing.  I've downloaded Rhino 7 so hopefully, that works. My most recent idea in Rhino is a two-story house.

 project 4: paper craft research. After looking through a curated list of creative articles. Featuring different techniques and mediums for designed art, we picked an article that stood out. I selected a few highlights that stood out to me as really satisfying works, creations that were fun to look at and regardless of how they looked I wanted to feel the physical paper materials. Yulia's current jobs work with high-profile names, including Paramount. Her Art focuses on older folks, rejuvenating dignity and confidence in old age.  Yulia graduated from Hertfordshire in 2004 with a master's in graphic communications. After graduation, she accomplished prominent brand names like The United States Postal Service for a permanent stamp design. Moreover, Yulia's creations were quoted as "Breakthrough stars" by Creative Review. Yulia's focus on non-typhographic graphic design Art has made its perfectionism and quality stand out. Her Art involves math and surgical prac...

  Project Three ,  Rendering, learning how to take our projects chosen from the critiques last week and adding realistic materials and lighting to create a more intimate reaction from the viewer. Instead of seeing cartoonish-style tinkerkads, we're adding life to these images.  I combined plastics, wood, fabrics, metals, and liquids for the six photos capturing the objects. The concept is now more conceivable as the image influences natural life materials. I'm excited about how the objects turned out; I added more spotlighting in the last two pictures and used Fusion 360 to implement this design, as Rhino and mesh downloads weren't compatible with Mac. I hope this looks convincing! My favorite render was the soft lighting on the plastic coffee cup. The overall linking of material's to objects was difficult, as I had to go back and forth between render and design, but guessing what materials would like on the render helped finish. But this project was fun, and I enjoyed ...
