Evaluation

In this project I was asked to produce a 3D room with a theme, I chose to do a baby girls room using a wide range of pink colours and baby objects to fill the room.
The room had to be completely made with 3D models and had to look realistic.

At first I was not sure if I was going to be able to make the products I wanted to make to go inside the room, I planned out in my sketchbook the ones I wanted to make and with some floor plans to show where I wanted them to be placed within the room.

My progress throughout the project was quite fast I thought that even though I did not believe at first that I would finish in time or if i could produce the models to a good enough standard the models was looking really good as I carried on producing and adding extra detail made it really enjoyable.

I think my weak areas were not being confidant enough in myself at the beginning and maybe if I had some extra time using it in my own time I might have been able to produce something more detailed and more realistic.
Another problem was when I was actually producing and then placing in my room I found it hard to make sure the models were placed properly for example if I had previously moved them or rotated them to work on a different area they might have been slightly off center making it harder to me to place them straight in.

My good points was that I believe I could make the products at a fast pace, leaving me with a lot of time to add more detail and materials to make the room and models look realistic.
I think one of my strong points is I am good at time management I know what I can produce and when I need to do it for I plan it out in my head and this makes it easier for me.
I was also asked as another task to make an extra model which was a teddy bear I did not think I would be able to create something that resembled a teddy bear but I did this an I am very happy that I finally believed in myself.

I think if I could do this project again I would try and test my self by doing something the complete opposite to a baby’s room and try something like a kitchen or a living area.
I would change little things about my current room for example the door I would like to produce a proper door an then put it in the room myself, this time round I made the door by using the surrounded area this I think is a weak point for me and would like to change it.

Over all I had really good fun doing this project and I would love to do it again, I think my fast time management would allow me to be able to make something good again.
I think it was very time consuming and enjoyable I think I produced the room to the best of my ability with the skills I had learnt and I would like to do it again if there was a option and try something completely different.

Progress

I have now rendered my room and took some pictures using the cameras, I think the project has been really good and gone really well for me, I now have to submit the work to Ben using various images and giving him the 3Ds max file that contains my room.

I am very happy with my room and what I have done with it in the time duration that we had to complete.

Further progress

Today I have finished off my design, I have made another model which was a teddy bear, i made this using a range of sphere shapes and squashed them down to make the body and head and ears, i then placed it in the cott which is in the room.

To finalise my room I had to add lighting and make sure that it looked good before rendering i added some Omni lights such as in the lamp stand and above the room where the ceiling would be.
I am currently in the process of rendering my room, after this is complete I will be able to take some shots of the room and hand in the project complete.
