Personal SWOT Analysis

SWOT Analysis

A SWOT analysis is used to identify peoples Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities and Threats.


Strengths:

Knowledge of Industry software (3DS Max, Maya)

I have a very creative mind for creating new things

I am very punctual in my timekeeping

Weaknesses:

Can be distracted

I never really seem to push myself when it is necessary

I take way too planning than doing the work

Opportunities:

I am part of the NextGen course which helps me learn the ways of the industry that I am wanting to be a part of


We often get people from the industry coming into our class to talk to us about our work and how we can improve it and giving us information about how to get started in the industry.

My work can be looked at by people from the industry which in the end are looking for people to give jobs to.


I have access to numerous industry programs such as 3DS Max, Unreal Engine and Unity allowing me to get a taste of what there is in the industry.

Threats: 

I am competing against other classmates in the end of this for a opportunity at a job further down the line at the end of the course

Somebody's work can be better than mine so I have to make my work stand out and look as best as possible and push myself to make it that way.
 
Action Plan For Development

For me to get into the industry I will need to develop my skills even further especially if I want to become a character sketch artist for a big developer in the industry. 


For this I need to practice my real life sketches as well as the muscle formation in the body so everything looks correct towards the human proportion. 


I need to develop multiple styles of drawing more than I already know as I can't guarantee that the project I will be working on will fit with the styles of drawing that I already know.


I will also need to develop my experience with things like coding because it is always nice to be able to a well rounded experienced person when it comes to the industry as it will help in me giving feedback to fellow colleagues in the industry. 


I would also say that I need to develop my comfort zone in more of a personal way so I can push myself to show off what I know and what I can do.

Model [Doomhammer Model]

So today we decided to do some more 3d modeling. The models could be of anything we like of any genre so I decided that because I have played World of Warcraft in the past and it is a game I enjoy I decided to model one of the weapons in the game. The weapon i chose was Doomhammer which happens to be very nice model and has some nice detail in the model. The picture I chose to help: As you can tell the model looks quite difficult however a lot of the detail in the model can just be done with texturing the only part I could worry about or just not have on the model is the cloth above the hilt that sticks out but we shall see what happens when it comes to me texturing the model. My model so far: The shape of my model is looking very similar to what the original looks like and I am enjoying making the model as this is definitely developing my skills in 3ds max as well as texturing. I will be updating this post with every time the model is updated.

First Attempt at Modeling Characters in Maya

Day 1 - Maya Character Modeling  So today I had my first attempts at modeling a character from reference images alone which for my reference images they are from an artist known as Josh Addessi and the image is his Golem Keeper. I chose this reference as it seemed like an interesting way to start off modeling characters as a lot of the shapes are still quite cube like with the golem being made of rock and it having a lot of sharp edges on it. I believe I did okay just starting I seemed to start off strong and got a hang of until I came up to the shoulders however the tutorials that Matt gave us helped a lot in that respective area as he showed us a nice and easy way to do it by using an edge loop. I made some mistakes in my character as there was a point when I went to mirror one side of the golem it had six faces on top of each other which I did fix just by deleting any extra faces that were on there. The only part I have to do next is to model the basic shape for the head as Ma...
