3D Post Card Scene
Post Card Direction (Front Matter)
Creating a Low Poly Scene
Students choose Theme according to interest. Thew output rendered image will be a Post Card Image for print.
Scope: Students are given the challenge to create a scene, built on research, concept sketches, incorporating simple shapes and geometric elements, progressing to a 3D Environment to build their proposed scene; using simple low polygonal primitives, box modelling and extruding techniques to implement all their necessary elements, including adding simple colours and lights, that goes into their built final shot.
Note: Students are required to place all the elements in a framed shot, using principles of Composition, Framing, Rule of Thirds, and Hierarchy of Information to communicate their proposed Post Card Scene.
Theme Options: Snowman with a hut and trees, Santa's village, Clock Tower village, a Minecraft Scene build with Cubic Forms, a city scene with buildings with the addition of a space ship and or a robot, or possibly a scene from a story, movie or a scene from game that they are interested in...
Teacher Direction: Please showcase the following links and have a class discussion regarding, creativity, expression, art, game design, points of inspiration, journey of acquiring skill sets to express communicate such ideas, as well as possible links to future career pathways and post-secondary destinations that offer such programs.
Possible Career Pathways: This unit opens suggestions to certain career pathways such as: Architect, Animator, Game Designer, Interior Design, Industrial Design, Artist, Game Art, Game Textures Artist, Set Designer for movies and many more ...
