What did you learn?
I learned how to actually be able to use MAYA software for the first time ever. I have never used this application and I was excited due to the fact that it was actually fun and more organized than I thought.
What was easy?
The easy part of the project was making my own chess pawn , rendering , moving it around , zooming in and out and most importantly just saving my final project. I have to be able to just work with it more in order to be more comfortable.
What was challenging?
The challenging part of all was the part where I had to create the spikes on the pawn , also being able to utilize the hypershading tool.
How could your submission be improved?
My submission would improve more if I did have enough to work on it . I do have other things to do , I just try my best to fit everything into pieces.
How could the professor improve the assignment for the next class?
The professor has been helpful, the videos for class instructions and also working with us step-by-step with the assignments have been really helpful and organized.
How might you apply your knowledge in future assignments or work scenarios?
I would be able to apply my knowledge by actually trying an assignment alone before actually watching the videos which shows step by step process.
How did a specific reading or video inspire or help you?
The video did help me a lot. It made most of the work easy and how the professor would walk through everything step by step was really helpful and it did help me actually understand it more.
