3D Design Portfolio

I do believe I've already posted the first project on here, but I'm not completly sure so I'll post it again just for the heck of it. But here are all three projects that I did in my 3D Design class this past semester. The first one is a hand made out of mat board and core board. It was completed as my Serial Planes project.

This second sculpture is made primarily out of wire, and tissue paper. The concept was a Zebra with its stripes unraveling.

This last project was quite interesting to say the least. We had to create a sculpture out of "found objects" and it had to have some sort of purpose behind it. I went the easy route (so I thought) and chose, "going green." Should be easy right? Recycled objects...combined together to make something huge (it had to be huge) and useless. Well I accomplished just that, I created some thing huge and useless, and at the end of the last meeting of this class, I destroyed it, which was quite therapeutic if you ask me. Well, here it is before I destroyed it...
This post should explain to you why I am not a sculpture major.

Don't worry, all pieces and parts were recycled afterwards....

Serial Planes - 3D Design

Here's something that I completed a couple weeks ago, it's a hand...made out of paper and core board...for my 3D Design class

Final 2D Design Project

Here is what kept me busy for about the last two weeks of the fall semester, our final 2d Design project. The assignment was a two part project centered around a social issue, I chose Childhood Obesity.

Part 1.) The Poster - Well, this image really doesn't describe what I did, because there was so much going on in this project. Everything was attached to a foam core board, and was "sticking out" somewhat. The fries can actually be removed from the fry carton, and some of the fries have information written on them. The McDonald's street sign move back and forth, in somewhat of a pendulum motion, and the Red Circle with the McDonald's logo on it rotates.

I used Copic Markers and Prismacolor colored pencils to draw and what not.



Part 2.) The Take Away - Fat Kid key chains, made out of Sculpy, painted with acrylics, and clothed in blue fabric. The box was made out of black foam core and matte board.

I wanted to make them out of the same stuff the make prosthetics out of, but I tried and failed. I thought it would be cool if when you flick their little fat kid stomachs that it would jiggle

Attached to the key ring was this tag. We had to provide information, and a URL for an opportunity to find out more on the social issue.

We were supposed to be somewhat concerned about the issue we chose, and I am!

...but it was mostly chosen because of the humor of the subject matter!

Enjoy!
