| | Inspiration
One day I was playing EA Sport’s Fight Night 2004 and there was a boxing venue that had a huge shark tank in the background and that gave me a great idea to make an executive desk that has a built on shark tank. I call it The Executive because I think executives have it all. They have the big offices and the nice scenery. I also thought it would be an awesome idea to add a flat panel monitor to my scene. Because I want to work in video games after I graduate, I thought it would be clever idea to be playing one in my scene.

| | Problems and Solutions
One of the biggest problems I had was positioning the lights in layout. Initially my lights and camera were huge compared to my whole scene. It took a while to figure it out, but in view options in layout I was able to size the camera and lights down to fit my scene. The other problem I had was with the render time. Because I had so much glass and lighting in my scene it took a long time to render, approximately 3-5 hours for each scene. I highly recommend not to procrastinate because if one waited until the last minute to finish their project it may take a very long time to render.
