[FINISHED] Types of Deformer

So I finally start saving thing >. <

so this is what we started with.
Basic rectangle that we add division to  

here is all the basic type of deformers:

First one is Bend













This is created by repetitive bending and is shown in smooth preview. and as name indicated it bend the shape.





Next one is Flare










Flare seem to expand the end of the shape ( i I don't really know how to explain but i guess i could say it expand the end of the shape (?) :P

Third one is Sine

Im not really sure what it does exactly but I guess best way to describe is that it twist the shape so it have this ribbon like quality and it look different from every angle which is very cool













Next is Twist   which is probably my favorite, it can make a cool spiral in a heartbeat. xD


Lastly is Wave and Squash I think these 2 are kind of tricky

This one (>) is wave if you can see the green line on the bottom that is the part that created the wave effect. if you move the shape over the line then it will created wave according to the setting


and for squash (on the bottom) I feel like it might work better on a round shape like sphere because it suppose to created the effect like when bouncy ball touch the floor and bounce.

Deformers mini lessons

-forgot to post after class last time :P -
so we start a deformers mini lesson last time and we have a guest .
I just kind of play around with the deformers ( it was so cool) but didn't save any of it :P

So we learn that the most important part is to add division. so the shape have a place to bend.

Helmet -Restart- -agian-

Restarting the helmet again...
I got pretty far but something happen when Mr. Cornell took the computer control and I couldn't fix it soooo I end up restarting again..... so this would be third time starting this now - -*

And side story: Cornell just toss as a bag of candy and said "Sell all of these candies or never come back!" - I Just being sarcastic but pretty close xP-

I should just go stand in front of Laredo and sell it to kid....but that would be promoting unhealthy food....Mr. Cornell you make me a horrible person!

Why I'm I in this class?

I guess I always been interested in digital art ever sine I was younger, but I just don't know much about it.
I know that digital art is what they use too make all the cool animation and video games. First I got into digital media world through MMO games. I know I want to do something video game related but I just don't know where to start and didn't think much about it. Then I become really interested in digital painting because of all the anime artist so I decide to attempt to learn digital painting from YouTube video. Then I discover that there are digital art classes here and I can take it for tech credit of IB so yay! here is my path to digital art. I don't exactly know what I want to focus on yet but I hope I get to experience different program and by the time i'm done with this class I will know more about what I want to do.
