My is kyler dillon and I am into cars. My friend a video editor and he was the reason that i got into it he taught me how to use video editor and start video editor.

What did you choose as your final project and why?

I chose a model and animation of an X-wing spacecraft because I enjoy films such as Star Wars and I thought it would be a cool project to do as my final.

How did you go about making your project? What did you need to get started and how did you about each stage of the project?

I looked a tutorial on youtube and followed each step. I started with a complete blank space and added each mesh one-by-one and manipulated the shape of them by mostly insetting and extruding them. All I needed to get started was a computer that could run a powerful program such as Blender, From there, I made each shape from scratch.

What new skills did you learn while working on this project? Did you use any tutorials to figure out how to make certain things in the project?

I learned how to make believable objects such as the X-wing and how to duplicate and rotate meshes to lessen the time it takes to complete a model. I used one tutorial from Youtube and followed step-by-step. This took weeks.

Will you continue in the Digital Media pathway? What do you look forward to learning next as you continue through the pathway?

Yes, I will. I am excited to learn new skills about Digital Media. For example, next trimester, I am taking the class for TNN. In that class, I am looking forward to learn how to use audio equipment needed to produce an episode of TNN

I went into Photoshop and traced and colored it using pen and tablet.This was a good introduction to learning how to use tracing tools and color.

How is working in a 3D space different than working in a 2D space (like Illustrator, Photoshop or AfterEffects)?

Objects are different and you have to consider different angles when rendering in a 3D space.

What are PRIMITIVES? Give some examples of PRIMITIVES you used in the creation of your 3D scene?

Primitives are mesh shapes that we start from. For example, I used the cube mesh and other shapes such as cylinder.

What are Materials? What kinds of materials did you make for this project?

Materials are what can transform a mesh to have texture and color. For example, I used a gold material for the coins.

What does it mean to RENDER something in Blender?

Rendering means turning a 3D scene into a 2D image.

Doing your own research online, find a good online resource for learning more about Blender. Include a link to the website, Youtube Channel or other site that you find and describe why this is a good resource for you to learn more about 3D modeling.

I enjoyed this video because it was very detailed and described each hot key.

This is my isometric room. I started with a blank space in Blender 4.0. From there, I added a floor and rotated that to create 3 walls. I created another room next to that which became the kitchen.

Our burger project was one of the first Photoshop in this project we used selection tools create a custom burger. This helped me learn how to add objects to a space to make it look more natural.
