Notes

Tuesday!
Found the CAWD pet for this year! Who wants to go down and snag one for us.
Not this Thursday, but NEXT Thursday 10/6 CTE has their Program Open House from 6pm-7:30pm. Make sure you get off work, and tell your family and friends early. It is a drop in session, come in, show off your work, meet the teachers, and head out for your 4 day weekend. Remember you only get a 4 day weekend if you and your family come to Open House!

9:40 Attendance and Article

9:45 Blender

UV Review
Simulation Animations – using forces such as gravity to create shapes and alignment of objects.
Rigid Bodies
- Active vs. Passive
Cloth vs. Collision
Solidify to give thickness – beware of going inside out and glitches!

10:35 Morning Break (10 minutes)

10 Minutes break – you have to exit the room.
When the door near the TV is open, you are welcome to come back in.

10:45 Critiques

Today Bergeron will be giving Constructive Criticism. Pick 1 thing that works, and 1 thing to improve upon next time. Remember we are separating the Design from the Designer. We are looking for actionable input.

Examples of Good Constructive Criticism:

“You didn’t follow the requirements of the project, there is no color.”

Examples of Bad Constructive Criticism:

“Blaug!”

Remember that Constructive Criticism can sometimes be subjective… on art which is also subjective. You don’t have to agree with the Constructive Criticism, but you have to hear it without getting defensive.

11:35 Blender

3D cursor.
Moving pivot point (origin) to 3d cursor. Moving pivot point in general.
Merging files together using append.
Human reference model / always good to place in projects to gauge your sizes.
Lets add to a number of our different projects to see – nobody will know your issues unless you want to share. This is all about tinkering and learning.

12:15 Lunch (30 Minutes)

No food in the room / eat in the Cafe.
You are welcome to return to the room when you have finished eating and work / hang out.
