3D Workshop Sculpture making

Today's lesson in the 3D Workshop, we began by going through all the health and saftey when in the workshop and using the equipment. Such as; when using the drill always wear goggels (provided) also when girls use the drill they must always tie their hair back. When using various tools like; saw and filer you need to be careful with how you use them because with a saw someone could cut their fingers and with a filer they could easily break if not used properly. For my model i just went along with certain pieces i chosen, i didn't have no plan or wasn't told what to make. In my opinion it was alot better creating things in our own way and choices instead of being told what to make.

(Tuesday) 3D Triangle Model making

This lesson was all about creating a 3D model out of triangles. Firstly, i began with A2 card and started to cut triangle shapes at one of the corners with a ruler and a craft knife. My triangle shapes i started to cut was too small, so i had to start cutting them bigger so it would save time and my model would be completed before the lesson finished. I wasn't really intrested or happy with this lesson and the model i was creating, because i was sticking the triangles in any place they looked okay at. Furthermore, creating a 3D model out of triangles isnt't something i would like to do.

3D Workshop Final Design Sheet

In today's 3D workshop lesson, i finished off all 3 of my research sheets on modern architecture such as; chosen architecture artist (Tom Fruin), Barnsley modern architecture sheet and finally randomly chosen modern buildings. Once all 3 sheets completed, i then had to start my design sheet on what my building will look like. I did manage to finish my design sheet (as shown below) then i was told to do another one but this time time only showing my design from all different angles.

3D Workshop week 1

For our first week at 3D workshop, we began by looking at 3D pop out card templates. Which were a basic square with longer, shorter rectangles put together but in different places. On the sheet there was a diagram explaining what to do and how to create a pop out card with three pictures of different lines such as:
. Straight black line - cut line
. Black dotted line - valley line
. Black road line - mountain line

Firstly, we started off with the easy pop out template which was a small rectangle with a line going down it. Because the lines represent where you fold it. But they're all different lines. In my opinion it was quite hard trying to fold especially, inside the rectangles because then my pop out card looked a mess. In the lesson there were 1 to 10 templates we had to do. I only managed to get to 8 because the templates took alot of time to cut, perfect over the lines.

I did try very hard with the pop out cards and did very well to say ave never done it before. Once i got onto my 5th template the lesson started to get boring. Because, i was getting restless and tired of doing the same template. I think if there were different templates like; hearts, stars, flowers. Then, the lesson would be more intresting for me.
