My initial reaction to the brief that we will be modeling our own head in 3D Studio Max does fill me with some trepidation, not least in the fact that I will be having to stare at my own face for hours on end! After contemplating this prospect a little further I think this is a particularly interesting brief and I have wanted to work and study organic models much more after encountering several issues the last time I tried to recreate a part of the human body in 3DS. I have always been very artistic in the past and a lot of my work has been based on the human face that I find completely intriguing. I hope that I enjoy this assignment as much as I think I will.
2 - Finchingfield Guildhall
The brief concerning recreating Finchingfield Guildhall, it's impact on the local area and it's new renevations is quite exciting. I think this brief lends itself to many possibilities and various trains of thought. I am looking forward to visiting the building itself and having a look around to fuel my idea processes. I think a lot creative aspects could be put into a project like this and I very much look forward to some brain storming sessions and delving into the history and research of this historic building. The only reservation I have on this assignment is that we will be working in small groups. I have both enjoyed and experienced issues working in groups over the past two years. I think that as long as the group that I find myself in is of a similar motivation to myself we (hopefully) will work well and create something we can be proud of.
