These are my final a3's that I presented. My idea was related to suicide which is to do with the whole grotesque idea and it is also portrayed on my original poster. It is obvious how my sculptie (the big black gun) relates to this idea, the 'tunnel' that catches the bullet is supposed to represent the tunnel that people who have come close to death describe ( a light at the end of the tunnel). The glowing dominoes represent this light and the final encounter with Sidney's cube releases drops of blood again relating to death/suicide.

ReplyDeleteIt was great that you actually linked your design to your grotesco poster.
The linked idea of suicide clearly showed by colour red, which seems symbolise a blood.
Especially, the red balls spliting away, when the bullet hit the object on second life.
It was also great to see work together with your neighbour.

This is posted a few blogposts down.
I liked the way you related your design to the suicidal theme of your poster and was able to intergrate this theme by using the gun to shoot a bullet. The projection stlye was refreshing as it strayed from the normal domino style, it also would of requierd reasonable script modification and percision to aim the bullets.
ReplyDeleteThe 3Ds max sculptie (Gun) was an good effort and displayed reasonable compentancy with the programe. However I would like to see a more realistc looking gun, therefore making it more reconiseable as a gun. Perhaps even to go as far as sculpted bullets instead of spheres would be a nice touch to your design.
You obviously collaborated with your neihbors well as the movement from justines through yours then onto sidneys. overall a very good contraption with good use of symbolism, colaboration and mesh generation.
Your design idea and your poster are linked very well. I quite like the gun fire idea, fires all trashed long way to the next person's trash can. It is also quite match the theme of your office.
ReplyDeleteEach trash is a bullet, comes out from the gun and shotted to next person. Nicely connect with your neighbors.
However, I think you could develop this gun idea further more, not just using one gun instead of many different guns, fire trashes same time, I think that would be more fancy than just one.
Overall I think this is a pretty interesting idea.
