Papercraft: Final Revision

ITS DONE!! 

After the feedback I got from our previous class I was able to change my design to look more like a vinyl record with its sleeve. The vinyl fits nicely in the sleeve, and overall, everything turned out how I wanted it to and much better than my first prototype. With the help of the laser cutter I was able to include highlights on the vinyl, as well as a nicely cut out "Blize Records" logo (Blize being my last name, as well as my Grandpa's who owned an RV park, now passed down to my Dad, hence why there's an RV on the front)

 


This is my first design for the sleeve cut by hand vs the new one cut with the laser cutter. The new one definitely represents a record/vinyl sleeve much better.

And even though you cant see it in these photos, the record/vinyl is layered so its thicker, and thanks to the larger pieces of cardstock I got, the scale is much closer to that of a real vinyl.

This was a great project and I'm excited to have gained these skills, mainly in Rhino that has now opened up so many opportunities for me to make more of these papercrafts on my own time!


(P.S. I do have more photos but unfortunately when I use snipping tool and save the photo there is an error now every time I try to put it into here)

Papercraft: Research

Image
Zim and Zou, also known as Lucie Thomas and Thibault Zimmerman, are two people who've created these detailed and eye catching window installations. I looked at most of the articles but really liked this one called "Forest Folk", specifically because of all the little villagers I was able to find another article (https://zimandzou.fr/forest-folks) that introduces these installations by explaining that we are given a sneak peak into this tiny little world. Giving readers a brief narrative of what's going on: "In this project, spectators have a sneak peak of curious characters living inside this environment. This microscopic point of view, where plants and other vegetal reign as masters, is like a kind of picture, a flash, a precise instant in nature's unrestrained run. Life is everywhere, flowers are growing and carry away it's inhabitants in their impetus. These mysterious people are evolving, building, and living right in the heart of nature, revealing a

Papercraft: Digital Samples

Image
For my first sample I decided to make the Ariana Grande perfume bottle that my partner got me for Christmas. It's this super cute cloud shape holder with the round perfume bottle sitting inside. I use it all the time and it smells amazing.  The only thing I didn't know how to get rid of, to make the digital sample look better, was the cut off shapes on the front of the cloud, which I'll have to figure out how to do that before I start the final project (If I choose to make this.) Other than that, I think this one is really cool!   I've made my second sample I made a record with it's case, inspired by the record I have in my room on my desk, it literally staring me in the face since it sits on the desk I work on. I also started of thinking of important or just interesting objects that I have In my life, so I started thinking about how my dad has boxes and boxes full of these antique records that I believe were from my grandpa, and now we have them in our garage, my b

Mesh Mashup (Concept Generation)

Image
 I have begun my Mesh Mashup objects 1. Portal  Starting with a combination of these three objects found on Thingiverse.  portal by yehonathanbarda - Thingiverse Portal Man Remix - Magnet by Joe-OSU- - Thingiverse Making Music by mom0sarah - Thingiverse I've made a stair case of figures running into this portal. I first got the idea when I seen the musical instrument and had the thought that it looked like a stair case. I also thought that since the instrument is limited and only goes so far, I wanted to make the end more interesting, so I added the portal like circle. And because of these specific human figures I used, I was able to take only half of one of them and make it look like one of them was halfway through the portal. 2.
