Google Day 2

Goals:

1.) I expect to learn on how to generate 2D images into 3D images.
2.) I expect to recognize the necessary details, to be able to generate a proper 3D model.
3.) I expect to comprehend the vast knowledge of detail accessing, and working.

Links:

Link # 1 is here. This site is a very successful tech tool, because it not only keeps you up to date on all of the latest 3D modeling activities on the big screen, but it also gives you some free tutorials on how to progress on your knowledge of 3D modeling!

Link # 2 is here. Sketchup is a very useful piece of software. It is basically Google Sketchup, however, the website version belongs to a company known as Trimble. It is a very interactive site which allows you to create your own 3D buildings, and designs, based on how you want your structure to look!

Link # 3 is here. Now, Zatun.com is a VERY useful link, which offers constant access, to the latest 3D modeling experiences. It even offers iPhone and iPad apps for your constant usage! This way, you will never be without your 3D models!

Link # 4 is here. The 3D Studio is a useful site, which allows for the browsing of 3D models that others have created. Its a good place to share and to collect ideas from other people, around the world!

Link # 5 is here. www.free3dtutorials.com, is a very interesting site. It allows for the free software download, and free tutorials on how to be able to commence, complete, and continue, your ever-growing, 3D modeling experience!

What I Have Learned:

Throughout today's progress, I have been able to comprehend, was on how many textures, and backgrounds and surroundings that can be applied to 3D modeling! A lot of this information came from Zatun.com, (see logo below), and Free3dTutorials.com! I know that all of this knowledge still needs to be discovered, but with what I have managed to uncover so far, and what I have seen, I can already see that I am ready for the max!

Something I Want To Learn Next Class:

Something I want to learn next class is how to generate a few of Zatun.com's famous iPad apps, and use them for my Google 20% project! And all I can say now is, I sure hope I can do it soon! Bye!

Well, that's it for this blog post! Until the next one! Bye!
