Clarke Steinback Ph.D. 3D Computer Modeling APCG 330 Spring 2006 Brian Howland

2006 Spring ->3D Computer Modeling ->Galleries ->Desk Gallery ->Brian Howland Brian Howland   Desk Scene                     Casual Workspace   Inspiration My inspiration came from my own desk where I am writing this report. I sat down thinking about what I could make for this project and I couldn’t really think of what to do. Then I thought of just making my own desk and so I decided to that. I noticed that my desk usually had a drink of mine on it whether it is soda or something else. I also noticed that I had a bunch of papers and books and stuff on it which led me to put that stuff on my scene. I also have a bunch of posters different posters up in my room and that led me to put posters in my scene. I wish I had an office chair that is as nice as the one in my scene but I don’t. I wanted to put a better chair in there to make it look better.

I had an idea of what to put in my scene but I didn’t know where to put it. I experimented with several different positions and I came up with one I liked and kept it. Another problem I came up with was when I wanted to work on my project at home some of the files didn’t work and I couldn’t work on it. But in my version I just hadn’t loaded all the plug-ins and so after I did that it worked. As for the objects I had a little trouble making the lamp. I had used the lathe tool to make it but it took me a while to get a lamp that looked good. I eventually created one that looked good and so I kept it.
