idea exploration imagination

look into your inspirations, graffiti, west texas, star wars, comics, whatever, lebbeus woods, morphosis, neil denari, your artists, musicians, etc.

create or invent an idea - this idea is to be EXPLORED : EXLPOITED : ENHANCED and have lots of energy (seriously) this idea will be taken into photoshop, CAD or Illustrator, then into 3dsMAx or Viz.

with your idea we will continue to experiment with edit mesh, modifiers of your selection, editable splines, renderable splines, sweeps, soft selections, and anything else you can create or come up with. the INTENT is to create and imagine architectural space so that you can explore the depths of this software.

come to class with your original sketch, collage, and idea - well formulated and well documented (scanned in and traced ready for max)

we will cover advanced lighting and default scan line render
we will cover mental ray render, global illumination, ambient occlusion
we will cover simple auto-key animation

next week is the last week of class come to class ready to learn and take notes we will go over a lot of information again :
