The Benefactor

Oh well, look at this. I managed to find the way you upload images.
This is the character known as The Benefactor to me, from the first workshop. As the Art Director, a role picked for me on the behalf of being the only person in the group capable of drawing, I had to design the characters. Among else. This character stuck out for me, partly for playing mission control though the game we made up.
And, again, I leave you.

Well then…

I apologize for not updating this blog in a while.
I lost it. Using my amazing memory capabilities, I managed to lose my own blog. I am frankly amazed at my own abilities,
As for what has happened these weeks I’ve not updated? Nothing of importance that I can recall. We finished the Sissy Fight assignment, wrote a popular science article, got started on essays, and we have lived through two workshops.
The workshops were a great deal of fun.
I would show the […]

SiSSYFiGHT workshop

After playing SiSSYFiGHT 3000, students were given a 90 second brainstorming session to come up with a new setting for the game. These new settings had to capture the original’s aesthetics (MDA game design framework), which were identified as:
Fellowship: Negotiation, Cooperation, Betrayal
Challenge: Tactics, Problem Solving
Narrative: Drama
Students were then divided into groups and had two hours to chose […]

Assignment week 3 part 2

These are the objects I modeled, the second two where cleaned later on by my two colleagues Seamus Newman and Viktor Kjellson. I will start to talk about the optimization that Seamus and Viktor did with my crates and later move on to the boxes i made. The task here is to clean the model from overlapping faces, problems with N-gons and reducing the amount of tris we have on our models etc. First off, these are the ones I made, and […]

Babel registration automated!

A weekend well spent: I’ve written a plugin that eats CSV (= data directly from the sign-up page) and shits subscriptions- and author registration.
Ergo: from now on Babel registrations are largely automated. I still need to initiate the process manually (so: notify me when new students have signed up) but apart from the copy-paste from google docs everything else is handled by the plugin and – importantly – it handles them in bulk. 1 student or a 100 takes the […]
