PROJECT 02 --- FINAL MOVIE

Screen Shots Of My Final Model In EC






Process work in EC

After trying the EC for so many times, I was finally able to handle the programme, and started to get along with my concept and creat different animations for my final model using the EC.
















Trials in Esperient Creator

Here are some screen shots when I first tried out the EC. By looking at the angles and lighting, it is obvious that I was not yet able to manage the programme at that time.











Final Model Refinement (SU + DE)



































For my final model, I have changed some of the textures and materials, trying a variety of these, looking at how they match with each other and continued to refine my model in both google sketchup and deep exploration.

100 Words

My model is basically a transformation of my first figure-ground model, and I have added a variety of shapes and textures to make it look more interesting and more like an inhabited space. The whole model is supposed to be floating, wherein every component will be interacting with each other: some are rotating, some are moving up and down, some trigger the others, etc. I noticed that some shapes are like stairs, I think I will make use of those to guide us go through each level of the entire model. Furthermore, I realized that the spheres and diamond shapes are actually quite dominating, so I am going to make them move at different speeds and angles, so that wherever you go you can see them moving around. With all these movements, I think as you go through the activated model, probably from the ground level to the top level, you can see and feel the interaction between every component, or perhaps the viewer as well.
