Dev Log 5

 Fifth dev log for Pre Production


What's been happening this week?

This week I have been working on the the final concept for the room and city as well as finally modelling my first block out for the light cycle.



These are the final designs for the layout of the room and the city. They are very simplistic and easy to understand. I improved on my last designed with having smooth edges and better proportions rather then just being a rough hand drawn scribble. These incorporate all the knew elements to each part. The city one might look bare but there isn't much I wanted to add otherwise it might get confusing have a tone of just boxes for the Neon signs and the vehicles and stuff so I just wanted to keep it simple and easy to understand. The room is perfect and exactly what I'm looking for, a mixture of new and fresh but with a hint of retro and old style.
Light Cycle Block out




This is one of my first hard surface models iv ever made and it came out really well I think. It was a pain to learn how to do it exactly how I wanted and I was scared to intersect my mesh but that's something I need to learn to not be scared of. it makes the mesh and design look cleaner either then trying to keep it all on one shape. It was a struggle getting the hole in the front to look good but after over coming my dislike for intersecting shapes it turned out great.

Sprint 2

Sprint 2 went really well. I feel like I'm on a good schedule and on time for what needs to be done and when. I'm keeping up with everything and if anything falls behind I plan to make up for it in sprint 4 depending on what it is. 













Thoughts On Progress?
I think I'm making good progress for getting the idea finalised with the final design. Now I need to work on getting the final block out and modelling some props. I think everything is going smoothly and the only thing might be the criticism I get from the bike. I don't think it will be bad but the poly count might upset some people.

What's Next?
Next is to work on getting more prop sketches done and out of the way ready for modelling, take the feedback i get from the presentation tomorrow and apply that to my work. Lastly work on getting a better final block out for the internal and external.

Sixteenth  dev log for Production What's been happening this week? Easter break happened between hear and now and I took a bit of time off for myself because i have a rough month coming up with all the work needing to be done. This week I worked on Texturing the room, setting the lighting up and shader setup.  Here is the textures of all the items added and even redid some original ones: Since i havent set up any lighting yet everything is quite dark, due to wanting to have a night time theme. The kettle and the toaster are made of metal and can be clearly seen they are with imperfections and reflections using matcaps for a better look. These were very simple to set up but had a few inverted faces I had to fix The knifes and the cutting bored were super easy to do due to separating the handle and blade into different materials, i then painted on the metal bots of the handle and were were good to go. I changed the colour of the wood for the kitchen to be darker because it just ...

 Second Dev log for Pre Production How was the pitch? The pitch went really well, I was able to get some really good feed back on my ideas. Helping me get better ideas then the original ones I had. Originally I was going to do quite a boring alleyway but now i see that I could do a whole street lit up and vibrant. What a much better idea! Everyone seemed to really enjoy mu idea of a city landscape environment with a room that you can walk around in. What have I been working on this week? This week I have been doing some sketches to widen my idea and get a better understanding of what I want out of this. I have mostly been working on building layout and the room setup. With some props thrown in there as well as some designs for the light cycle I want inside of the room. These are all early sketches for the layout of everything but its generally what im wanting it to look like. Thoughts on progress I think for the first week flushing out my idea is the best thing I can do before we g...

Twelve dev log for Production What's been happening this week? This week i have been texturing the model I made last week and then implementing them into unity allowing me to test there lighting. Texturing them was quite easy to do, due to the way I unwrapped these. I have having issues with the kitchen wood texture but then I remembered the option called tri-plainer, I think it was called and it saved my life from struggle. It allowed the wood to wrap perfectly around and look realistic. after the week has past and looking back on these textures the kitchen ones are a bit to light for the rest of the environment so this is something that I'm going to have to change in the future. I took the feed back i got from sprint 1 and turn the feedback into reality making the tv stand less "boring" and "square" making it nice and curved and not just flat this turned out amazingly and love the new design. for the window having one big one instead of having loads of sma...
