3D Character and Environment Design for Animation,

After creating an environment for my topic, it was very difficult to work on it but still i managed as i could.

Environment outcome:

3D Print

After completing all, we are required to print the character in 3D, so the character are printed to represent of what we have done, My printing was a failure at the first. These is the image:




This printing failure might be because of the polygons that is merged all into one. This might be very heavy for the printer to read,

Lighting (Character)

Before starting the environment in Maya, we are required to play with lighting on the character. This will help us to place a lighting tool according the scene that we have done. This practice is to see how we understand the importance of lighting for an object.




Interactive Design for Games and Web Applications,

After developing the ideas for my Game in scratch, I have started to develop the game in Scratch with the knowledge that i had during the Scratch exploring.


In my game, the character will have to being clicked and the activity that wanted to be done. These are the screen shots of my game building :











These are the screen shots of all my process in making a game. During this semester, since i have been lacking, i had not enough time in creating my game,so, for now, i have to make one level that recovers all my topic of the game plan. There are some place where I couldn't not fgure the exact coding for the sprite.


This is the character in my Game:






Interactive Design for Games and Web Applications

Introduction to Scratch

Scratch Game Maker is an application that is used for game designing. This game making app functional is in coding system. To make a Sprite move, the coding need to be coded in exact format to move the sprite. Other than that, what I've learnt is, the coding are available in the scratch, to ensure the coding are coded on one specific sprite, the sprite need to be clicked before coding it.


To practice using Scratch, i tried coding it with the existing sprite in scratch.






The coding system are quite confusing, to make use of it, i should explore more and what other things can this app do.

Individual Design Project

Project Proposal (Mantin)


Project: Dusoon

Due date of completion: 3rd, November. 2015

Product/Service/ logo :
 Dusoon; Introducing the unique fruits and Plantations and it's process in Mantin. This project is mainly focused on the plantations and two unique fruits that is produced in Mantin. This is to show how does the orchards in Mantin are organised in growing fruits.


Key Objective:
The benefit of this project is to the target audience which they will be able to know the process and the unique of plantations and Fruits in Mantin. This is because, people in Lagenda are from different parts of Malaysia and from different countries as well. It is an opportunity to get new knowledge about one main system in Mantin.


Target audience: All students and staffs of Lagenda.

Scope: This project will explain the nutrition of fruits via Dusoon Webpage. Other than that, this project is make more people interested on fruits in Mantin.

Design Project plan: This project will reach goals when the entire scope of this project reach the audience. Lagendarians are the one will be used to measure the success of the project.

Measures of success:  By viewing the pageview count in the website and the feedback of the target audiences in social media.



Individual Design Project

Overall review

After working on for all the modules in this semester, I had learnt to manage time better than before even though my work has been lacking and not as planned in the Gantt Chart. Other than that, i struggled in managing time all along the semester and it had effected my works as well. But still i managed to work day and night to catch all the works that I had been left behind.

I had understood the importance of planning the project and I learnt that the time management will never go according to what we have planned. So, an alternative ways should be planned so that we are not left behind like what i have faced for this semester.

Moving on to the modules review, this Individual Design Project was a very effective way for me to see my strength and weakness in some specific places during my project of Mantin. During my research for this semester, I had quality time in knowing the methods to work with peers for a huge project confidently.

Colour and Design in 2 and 3 Dimensions

Emotion Box : physical diorama/ Mantin Mapping (3D project)



Emotion box is a project to show focused emotion of human. For this task, a mixed media art is required to designed to explore type of materials to create unique pieces of assemblage box art that are inspired. Additionally, color are also to be strongly focused.



According to my topic for this whole semester which is the Dusoon (orchard) in Mantin, a system under plantation in Mantin. My background of the emotion box is planned to be an orchard environment that is full of green trees. The trees are attached layer by layer. Other than just trees, blue sky and some simple 2D birds made of lines are attached. Then, the character of my topic is called Ah Soon, a Chinese that plays a role as an orchard keeper. My character will be represented in the emotion box as an Automata.


All the details of trees and character is printed on a white sheet with colours then glued as planned to make a 3D emotion diorama.

Game Plan

The title of my game is as same as my topic's title which is Dusoon. So, this dusun game plans are at 5 levels. Each level have to set with a goal so that we can move on to the next level.


These are the description of my game:

Level 1: Cleaning the areas of orchard so that in the next level, that specific place can be planted with Jackfruit and Durian trees. The goal of this level is to collect points and money to go to next level


Level 2: Planting the plants on the clean environment. The plant icon is visible after the player reach a certain points in it.

level 3: Taking care of of the plants and never let them being eaten by the cows And while pruning them to be more healthy.

level 4: level 4 is a place were all the tough task and crucial point for the Abi

level 5 : After that,when the plantation in this game has grown healthy and strong, The game show that it has been completed fully.


Reflection:

Planning a game is not easy, the production is very important and the layout need to be strong and relevant

Individual Design Project,

Week 10

I have been lacking in all the modules for this semester especially for all the modules due to the lost o my photos of observation. So, I had to run the observation process again by snapping photos of the orchards in Mantin. Then, i had to re-compose some of my development.

From this, i had learnt to back-up important files so that I don't have to lack if lost of data collection.

Individual Design Project

Organisation

It is complicated in design process, a clear methodology would be an effective way to work and produce on exact time according the deadline. For a good time management, Gantt Chart is the most effective way in planning time for a specific task with the time arranged or needed.

A Gantt Chart is a sheet that has X and Y axis as for the details of task management and time. For this semester, creating Gannt chart is the best way to work according to the assignment brief. This is the Gantt chart that we shared for the whole semester.

Exploration of problem

After a thorough imaging in Mantin, all the systems were categorised and the Topic that i have selected for promoting Mantin is the Plantation. In depth, the orchards and the fruits are the most unique in plantation in Mantin. As it is about the orchard, I used the Malay word Dusun which means the orchard in English.

The problem i faced here is to find a topic about to be promoted. Initially, i have not understood of what the concept is, so I had wrongly picked a topic which is to talk about the car washes and the services in Mantin. After a discussion with the driver module Leader, it seems to be a bad idea to select such a topic because it is not a system in Mantin, it is a business that runs in Mantin. Then, by doing re-imaging in Mantin, more to the estate side and the plantation side, i had an idea to explore and select the plantation in Mantin.

This topic of Orchard is the topic that i need to be covered in the other modules as well. In Colour and Design in 2 and 3 Dimensions is to work on the multi layer of colors in Mantin. Then, Interactive Design for Games and Web Applications is to make a game about Mantin. Next, Interactive Design for Web Technology is to make a Wbsite for the topic i have sekected. For Principles of Marketing, we will use this module to promote the subject matter. Lastly, for 3D Character and Environment Design for Animation module is where we work on the environment and character designing for the topic.

What i learnt from here is how to work in a situation where all the requirement has different scope but concerned on one main topic by different outcone for each modules. This is a practice of taking pressures on one, it helps to manage time in future design companies that we might go.
