Narrative - Card Selection

These are the cards that we got for our group project, I'm quite happy with them as a whole, however I was at first a bit worried about getting the 'No Cuts' card. This however has changed since discussing it with the group and thinking about all the different options we have, it is still very early but we are all very eager to get this project under way.

A quick idea that I have had is perhaps to show a story that communicates how love is an important factor when creating something, so toys that are made without love are bound to fail, where as the toy crafted with care and love is destined to succeed.

Group Name ideas

We've been discussing names as a group now and are having a hard time deciding on one that will best reflect us as a group, we did stop on the name 'Sleeping Lighthouse' however after talking to Alan he suggested that the Sleeping part wouldn't look good for us as a group.

So here is a list of names that we came up with (I've shortened it because we had a lot to choose from):

Starbulb
Starry Arcade
Mostly glitchy
Inferno
Apex
Night Hunters
Skyfishing
Gentle Giants
Sleeping Light House
Tetrarail
Countercurrent
Tsygan
Dezik
Enos
Black Diamond Productions
Dream jar
Soaring High
Poly Arc
Red Wax
Out of the Box Productions
Solid Line
Neutron flash
Quantum horizon
White flux
Irregular tear
Aegis
Cupid
Norse
Ve
Ra
Susanoo
Itzamna
Cupids Psyche
Poly Vision
Fantasy Chaser

We also did some thumbnails for Sleeping Lighthouse & Dreamjar, here are what mine looked like.





Any feedback would be very welcomed

Personal Work - 3D Sketching 15/09/2015

Today I decided to get back into ZBrush and sculpt a random character, it was good to get back into the program and I really enjoy sculpting. This is the outcome, I focused just on the head, so no detail was added to the torso.



Next sculpt I will attempt to learn how to add clothing, poor naked man.

Personal Work - Learning ZBrush #1

Today I started a beginners ZBrush tutorial from digital tutors, this is the current progress of the sculpt. It was created using ZSpheres and DynaMesh, I am looking forward to learning more in ZBrush and expanding my skillset.
