Progress by Week 7

Over the last 3 weeks  have been working on converting my old Maya files into blender so I can continue to work on making an environment  I have also been making small display items TV cabinets, Sword displays And other household objects.
These are complete models with rough Textures for display of the end result by the end of the term i hope to of completed the textures inside and out and completely furnish both houses, To convert the files at TAFE I had to do a little research to find the program "Deep Exploration" where I could convert any file type to anything in this circumstance I needed to convert a .MB file to and .OBJ or .Blend file

Week 4

Over the last 4 weeks i have been focusing on some video tutorials for blender, messing around with some buttons and settings, I have also completed 3 out of 4 of our PDF tutorials (Make a dice using booleans, Make A shark using your Uv editor For concept art, And a sword using materials and textures)

The Introduction of My Blog

The Purpose of this blog is to display what i have learnt in the Diploma of Interactive Digital Media

Mainly during this course i shall base a lot of my focus on 3d modelling in Blender And texturing models to be used in game as environment assets, Hopefully Focusing Mainly on Housing and Flora

Before attending at Tafe in 2013 I went to AIE in canberra where i studied in 3D Games Development over those two years i gained strong skills in Maya and photoshop, This year i hope to be able to convert those skills into blender and be able to create the same creations on a stronger level than i could in maya at the end of 2012

As i briefly went over before my strengths and where most enjoyment in 3D modelling for me comes in environment art at the end of 2012 i began to start modelling house of my own and friends, To hopefully be able to incorporate into a free roam game engine by the end off the 2013 i hope to of also completely developed into this idea so there is quite a few buildings to explore and A small landscape to enjoy

At the start of 2014 i wish to Start creating a small indie group with a small group of friends by doing a course run by AIE were they let you create and support you to build yourself a small company.
