Research Board




















As I understood, to make a research board means to research different James Bond films and to choose the one I like the most. So, that's why around are placed the pictures of the films from which I was choosing and the big picture is from the film 'Quantum of solace' which is my favourite and I am going to make a trailer for.
Finished banana's look.













The last but not least task was to create a banana. The box was created on the perspective viewport, later going to sub-object level the box was extruded (bevel tool also was used). Soft selection helped to make random shape. Later as a finish, the figure was smoothed with turbo-smooth modifier. In my opinion, this banana is too much smoothed and looks a little bit like carrot, but as a first experiment I think it is ok.













The second task was to create a 3D apple.
First of all, the sphere was made on the perspective viewport. Later, clicking the right click of the mouse and going to editable polly it was possible to change the spears shape with selection tools ( vertex, edge, polygon...) until it will look like an apple. The stick was created from cylinder which was converted to editable poly to make the shape.















This is the finished picture of an apple.












Later, to make another roof was made totally the same process with 3 angle cylindric figure. The colons were also made with the same cylindric figure but, the number of angles was changed to 13. After 1 colon was made it was cloned (copied) clicking the right click of the mouse and chosing CLONE. That is how the other colons appeared. To make sure they are standing correctly on the same line helped top view where it is easy to correct.

First of all, the plane was created as a basement on which the house is located. After that to create the house the box tool was chosen on the tools and utilities bar. Top, left and write views helps to make it in the right position and see how it looks from different sides. Then, to make a roof the cylindric figure was chosen and the amount of angles was changed to 3. After creating a roof I had to make sure it is directly on my box. During the process to make everything on its place rotation tool was used and other main tool bar tools.
The brief seems quite interesting and I believe making James Bond film trailer will give me a good knowledge. I see the task a little bit challenging as I never used 3D Max program before. We used to do moodboards and storyboards so, it is something we have an idea how to do. In general I like the task and hope to do it well.

P.S: I have to apologise for my english as it is not my mother tongue.
