EOYS Finalising

As the End of Year Show grows closer, a lot of effort and thought have gone into promoting it, sending out invitations and getting things ready for the big night on the 7th June, 2019!  A huge hats off has to go to the amazing committee that have worked so hard to facilitate and make the night happen.  With their fundraising, planning and design, our End of Year Show, is sure to be a huge success and great celebration of all of our hard work!

Personally, I have enjoyed helping out with my classmates preparing the rooms for the night.  Painting, moving and rearranging the rooms so that each team/personal project has a good place to showcase their amazing achievements.

CV and Business Card

Before heading into the big bad world of employment and potential freelance work, it is essential we leaving Undergraduate level with a professional portfolio of components we can use to sell our skills and help put us on the industry map to propel us towards a future career. This is in regards to two main pieces of self promotion.  The CV and business card.  It is important we have these designed, printed and accessible on the night of our end of year show so that company reps, directors and other industry members can view our projects and then take something tangible away from it to remember who we are and what we are capable of. When it comes to CV, I have always been taught through my years of business orientated education that it is simple, clean and not overly creative.  I was always taught that colour is tacky, images are resented and icons are acceptable but need to remain minimal.  When I approached this initial design stage of an updated and a...

Optimising Models

To optimise our scene even further, myself and our Director, Cassie, decided to start deleting faces for various models in our scene that are never seen by the user.  These are mainly on furniture, large counters, table items, counter items, fridge and kitchen door.  In this blog, I will post the videos of a few of the newly optimised models, some images from the process and explanations from other blogs and videos I watched as to how basic models need to be to ensure our scene is optimised as much as it can be. I found the article from Evermotion on optimising scenes to be very helpful in giving me the knowledge and understanding of why optimisation is such a large part of a project such as ours.  The real time rendering that we will be using within unity is processing a lot of information at one time.  If a project has a lot of textures, geometry and animation, this can be described as an expensive project.  Not that it costs a lot of money, but rather i...

Social Media

For our social media awareness and content, our character artist, Megan and myself will be overseeing this area.  I will contribute and supervise the Facebook side of content, and Megan will oversee the Instagram side of things.  Together, we have produced a list of potential and decisive components that we want to include within our social media pages for The Happy Place.  These will involve the areas of 'meeting the team', concepts from pre production, developments of the team and project, as well as giving our followers small, regular insights into the Happy Place and what they can expect to see when we present our final piece. Below is a screenshot of our current Facebook page as it stands.  With posts relating to our team and content of our early concept work, we have built up a small following of friends, family and students who are keen to see how our project developments from now, until the date of premiering our work. I created the cover phot...
