Week 3: settling on the idea

 This weeks tutorial was quite helpful: we had to get in groups and pitch our ideas. I generally got positive feedback but I do realise that I need to be careful when I am saying that I will make a character set in diorama: I have to be careful to not make diorama to big, from now on I will call it a stand instead as I imagine that it will look like a stand under the warhammer figures:

I made notes for my pitch during the tutorial:

I should spend more time on researching and try looking into mindmaps next week.

Week 2: Brainstorming

This week I spent a lot of time on thinking about themes which interests me. I picked the idea 3D diorama, but obviously I am nowhere near deciding what the final piece will look like. I made a lot of notes this week and little mindmaps. During the Friday tutorial I have produced big general mindmap and made a list of tasks for me which will be about my research. I will hope to slowly start getting through them soon, for sure I'd like to look into 3D printing and snow globes, then try and decide what kind of research way I will pursue. The coming weeks lectures will be helpful in this matter.

*This is my work from second week although I am publishing in third week... I hope that won't be happening very often !

Week 1: what shall I create?

 I am super excited to start my 4th year of uni! My goal this year is to create an excellent piece for my honours project and I will present my journey of it on this blog. My dream is to find an employment as 3D character artist/3D game artist, generalist. This week I have been trying to think about my portfolio, what is missing, what shall I work on more, what do I really want to achieve this year. My project needs to connect to the thesis I will be writing so I have to find an important subject that I wanted to work on. I started to think of ideas as well. I was certain that my work will be in 3D, will be game ready, will present characters, most likely animal/creature. These are notes I made at my own time and during first tutorial.

During the tutorial I have created a PowerPoint with ideas I considered the most. This was an excersise for building a visual statement.

So far I got really excited about my first idea.... I think 3d printing my diorama and putting it into a snow globe is something very creative!...

Next step is to look into envinromental problems and make a big mindmap of ideas.
