More java script/Codecademy

Stared my day by trying to unlock the door with scissors... once we got into working with the computers, i started learning how to work with "typeof" and for-in loops, these allow you to call up the types of properties in a given class and can be used to see the parameters of said class, 'what makes it up' e.g. name/location/etc. Also found out that you may need to call a new page because Codecademy can glitch out, use CTRL + F5.

I Started learning about Object Oriented Programming, witch moves toward more class setup and how to use constructors and objects to make objects have more depth and be more useful.

This sort of programming gets away from the nitty gritty and mores toward the simplicity of the job, figure out what you need to get done and build a framework to apply to may outcomes.

Codecademy

Was able to get through two sections of the building and address book lesson before the site crashed, i will continue when the site comes back up.

Codecademy came back up with 45-50 minutes left in class and i was able to finish the lesson and am continuing on to the next one

Learned how to build constructors and pass variables from a constructor to an array and to read them back into the console.

Got stuck on using bracket notation in Intro to Objects II 5/30

Back to Coding.

Couldn't get the hang of modeling very well and decided to go back to where i started this year, Coding.

I am on code codecademy learning java script.

This is where i started today, I learned how to use methods and functions to do work, calculations.

Finished the The introduction to objects and i am now able to make objects consistently in both constructor and literal notation.

Maya

Found that dealing with Maya is not for me i need to find another program to work with, Maya is just to much of an art I lose interest. I got the hand model almost done but i will find another program to work with.

More Modeling, basic

Started modeling a hand

found out how to import image planes to use as reference

Ball Bouncing

 Found out how to use the custom shelf in Maya to save often used tools (Shift + Alt + Click)

Found out how to use the graph editor to smooth animations and make them look more natural, the lines represent different translations, movement up-down, movement left-right, and rotation. these can all be fine tuned after using key frames.

I used key framing and the graph editor to animate a ball bouncing and had a good amount of success getting it to look natural.

Voila.

Modeling prowess

Made an ice cream cone similar to this one but it got deleted because Maya crashed.
Learned how to use lattice editors and use more of the attribute menu so that i can make my one creations match in scale and not get lost in rendering.

Sword Model.

Basic modeling is actually rather fun, i made a sword to get a hold on Maya's controls and it turned out well i am going to keep going through the tutorials and making objects so i can make some sort of animation my the end of the month.

I am getting the hang of the basic movement and i learned how to extrude to do basic modeling.

Goal for may/june

Got maya to install and started running through the basic tutorials, object manipulation and creation.

I am going to try and make an animated scene by the end of the month including some of my favorite video game characters. I will be leaning more to animation and less toward the actual modeling within Maya at least to start.

Maya or Revit

Spent most of class trying to come up with an idea of what to do during may, i have no idea, if i can get revit i will try that or if i decide on Maya modeling i may do that. sort of lost...
