Week 1

For the first week of class we were introduced to blender and shown the basics of the software. Our first task to get used to blender was to model a table and set of chairs. I found this task easy enough but had a bit of trouble making sure everything was joined together and not uneven.

Then we were introduced to our homework task to model and animate a snowman, It took a few tries to model the snowman and to link together his body parts for the animation. The actual animating was confusing especially with getting used to the timeline and how depending on the frame amount how fast and slow a movement would be.

Making the background was fun and I attempted to create snowballs that were being thrown by the camera and the snowman, I played with the size of the snowballs to give an exaggerated notion of how fast the snowballs were being thrown.
