Art Adventure

So it beings -- a new year! As a Sophomore I am now taking classes like Game Design and Computer Animation for Games, really exciting stuff. For example, on the first day of game design our teacher took the twelve apprehensive students our class was comprised of, and told us to create a team based game right on the spot. To be fair, it was not a video game or board game, but a physical game. We ended up cobbling together a set of rules for a "obstacle course" type game by arranging furniture in the room, and blind folding our fellow students. With six members on a team, the goal was to send one member at a time across the field without hitting furniture, else that team would penalized. Each remaining member could shout only one command, from 'Go, Stop, Left, Right and, Strafe'. The point being once more people made it to the other size, teams would lose more precise options of communication. Of course for a game we made up on the spot, it was a bit silly, so we revised more rules and just had a great time!

 Other than Game Design I'm taking a coding class that utilizes Processing and a zbrush class that specializes in modelling human anatomy. For the coding class I made a little script that draws different colored rectangles. The user can change the colors by moving the mouse over the canvas, and once satisfied with a color, can click to draw another box, until the space is filled. Play around with it below!
