Ice Cream Project

Maya

During the another week in e-Com we continued our focus on Maya projects. This time our assignment was the 'Ice Cream" project. This consisted of us using bump textures in order too make our spheres look more like ice cream. The bump textured were easy to get too and I used the 'cloud' 3d texture on my ice cream. It worked very well and the product came out very nicely.

Next we went ahead and flattened a large cylinder, which would be used in order to create a 'Lazy Susan'. This is where I started to animate. Using the time line I had the cylinder do a full 360 in the span of 120 frames. The fill product came out like this:

The Pen Project

Animation class has always been fun and recently we've been working with a new software names Maya. This time it was in our mindsets to create a pen, modeled after one we actually owned. I chose a orange pen I kept around and began to model it.

The final product :

The pen went very well. I started with cylinders and from there, continued by shaping them and then eventually adding color into the mix.
