I first of all had to decide on my PRP topic and start researching clients for my client project. After a long winded research process i finally decided on a PRP topic.
PRP Brainstorm:
I want to study the physics of 3d animation, for example, the way gravity affects objects, how when a wave occurs in the sea how it assembles and falls, i want to study how objects move. another example; when a building falls, i want to question how it falls? how does gravity affect the falling rubble? how does wind affect it and when it finally hits the ground, how does it disperse? what course do the particles of rubble take? I want to do this because i have always been interested in physics and as the modules this year are long drawn i want to study something that is going to keep me engaged and get my brain ticking. To do this i am going to look at the particle systems and space warps within 3ds Max and i am also going to do external research, so watch clips of buildings falling, waves forming etc and create my own tests with materials such as wood, plastic, cardboard, foam, and i will film these experiments before recreating them in 3ds Max. I still need to get this checked off with my course leader but hopefully i will be able to carry it out if not this then along similar lines.
OK, so my client project, as of yet i still have not got a client lined up, I am actually quite interested in doing a competition, but i am finding it difficult to find one that is ending after our deadline. There are a lot of competitions ending this month so hopefully there will be new entries for 2012 opening up soon which i can partake in. I feel with entering a competition, if i do well it will give me more opportunities in the future as not only does it build my portfolio other companies and future clients are more likely to see my work whereas working with a client, OK, it could possibly guarantee me a job after uni but its only that one client that sees my work. However at the moment I am looking for anything its not easy enough to be picky but i think if a competition becomes available i will take that as my "client".
I am looking for clients in the 3d visualisation industry, I am very interested in architecture and especially interior visualisation. My perfect client would be a company who produces stills or fly-through's of interiors for residential or commercial builds. I ideally would like a company in London as it is not far from my hometown and if i manage to get a job out of it then i can easily travel there. If i get offered a job in Nottingham it won't be much help to me after i graduate.
I am not looking forward to this year as i know it is going to be a lot of pressure and hard work, My time management is also very poor and it is something I'm going to have to work very hard towards improving this year! I feel if i manage my time well this year i will be able to crack it and it will greatly benefit my future in this industry.
Here are some clients i have been looking at:
