Week 3

With the completion of the Asset project, I felt a little more confident about things than I did at the start of the unit. However, this week, we were introduced to our second project, the Environment project, with bridges being the focus. Unlike the asset, I was far less confident with this. We were tasked with creating not only a model sheet, like with the Asset, but an 'in-situ' piece as well. Nonetheless, I started working on the project.

We were actually introduced to Alchemy, a sketching program that has the goal of 'taking away control' from the user. While I was hesitant to use it at first, I found it to be quite useful with creating silhouettes. My initial messy alchemy silhouettes partially worked out, but I found that the silhouettes I created in Photoshop before using alchemy worked more.

I ended up creating a lot more silhouettes with this project than I did with the Asset project, but after this point on, I started to fall apart a little bit.
