Reflection for Week1 (Lab1)

Reflection
For Exercise 1 and 2

I have a fun time drawing and sketching out the primitive shape. Through this exercise , I understand that 3D can be broken down into simple shapes.I also understand that part of thinking in 3D is by breaking down into simpler steps, simpler shapes and small components.I also gain knowledge where things around us are actually in the form of 3D.Actually, each of the objects are made up of shapes like cylinder,cone and pyramid. I think that this exercise let us have a basic idea on what is 3D and how a 3D can be actually broken down into simple primitive shape. This primitive shapes would allow us to have a better concept on how we look at 3D models with the collection of different primitive shapes.

Exercise 3

I think that this exercise promote thinking.By comparing prison and toontown, it gives us an overview why some structure of the buildings are being build that way. I also learn that actually angle of the building would gives us a sense of feeling.For example. The buildings of the prisons have sharp angles and buildings are design straight/straight lines,toontown structures are mostly curve/curve lines. In psychology view sharp angles/sharp edges look more unfriendly and fierce .However curve angles look more inviting and lively.I understand that lines and angles reflect different meaning on the structure.I learn a new meaning what sense of scale is. It is a various comparison of various distances.The sense of scale might reflect different purpose of the buildings.(eg. The sense of scale of the prison is long and big but inside,the cell is small.) The purpose of this is to take advantage of the space within the structure.)I have also gain more knowledge on 3D design and models.
Also being able to compare the different images and come out with a conclusion.
