Digital Prototypes

In this post, I will show my digital prototypes process. Before I start prototyping I measure two break out spaces with Billie's help. Then I used the real dimensions in software and started designing the spaces. This term I wanted to try  new software except homebyme so I chose coohom. I chose this software because it has more options for everything so I can find the closest thing that I want to use . 
First I created a room in same dimensions. Then placed the doors and find some furniture that I want to use. These are just symbolic furniture and decorations to see how it is gonna fit and what can I add. I placed the sofa and table first then tried to place the table games. I struggled to place the games because each game need a space to move around and walk and also I have to consider the doors too. I made this design but I will try different designs too and decide which will work better. I can place wider benches instead of sofas to save some space for other furniture and decorations.  






Then I designed the first floor. I placed the furniture and accessories using the space planning that I decided. It looked a little crowded I will change the furniture and their place to make more accessible and spacious. I liked the way the bookshelf looks so I can keep this but I will change the bookshelf design. I didn't place everything yet so I believe when I placed windows, furniture and decorations it will look more lively and spacious. 



These were the practices that I made for digital prototype examples. In my next post I will show the process of physical prototypes.

    Say more about this software (cohoom?) and how it has helped develop your skills - the images here look quite similar to HomesByMe, would like to know how this software differs. Are there different tools, is it more 'user friendly'? etc.

    Printed images of your digital prototypes can be used to help develop drawn concept sketches with the light pad - your portfolio (and further development) should show all elements of your skills.

Sequential Image Class Practice

Image
We completed a class practice on creating sequential images this week.  I decided to take a couple of live photos of me and my friend are jumping . This pictures shows our actions and movements from standing to jumping into the air.  I used Iphone 14 Pro phone. I used 'burst' option in the camera and I set the timer for 5 seconds to capture our picture in the air. These are the settings below. In these pictures we inspired by Jumping Horse (1887) by Eadweard Muybridge. His photos include one horse and the man on the horse are jumping over an obstacle. And we decided take similar pictures like his photos which I put down below. And these are my original pictures.  The next step is that I am going to put my images together in Pixlr Editor. And I am going to show all my steps down below.  I opened Pixlr Editor. Then I clicked 'create new'. Then I clicked 'print' from the top menu and chose ' A4 size' page. Then I 'titled' my images as 'Jumping...
