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.

Sculpting a Character in Mudbox

So today I have been using Mudbox to sculpt a character. The character itself is a turtle with its shell on. So to start off I decided to work on his skin first and within this I was using two main tools the first being the imprint tool and the second being the smooth tool. I started off with a stamp that comes with Mudbox and I would just stamp the area I needed to give it a bumpy area on the skin. I would then smooth off the more harsh areas so it doesn't have any major jagged lines on it. After doing this for a while I started to notice that it was giving off quite a stone texture to the skin which I started to like after a while. However when it came to the feet I changed it up a little as I smoothed the toes a lot more than the other parts of the body which makes them stand out more and when it comes to texturing this guy I can add more detail to it by changing some of the colours around. Next I started on sculpting on the shell which I made look very unique as I made some v...

New Model/Concept Art [Loki's Helmet]

So this is my next planned model once I get both Doomhammer and Mjólnir finished and textured. So this piece being from the Marvel Cinematic Universe I need to get it to look very nice proportion wise. The helmet itself I think is going to be very tricky due to the amount of overlapping layers and as well as some unusual features. Those being the horns on the helmet which I think the only hard part for those is when they will curl back in towards the helmet. In this version of the helmet I will be adding a little something from the comics and that being a blue gem that in the comes he always had in his crown. I drew both a front facing and a side view for a all round basic look at the helmet in which it will help me make it easier to get the shape done correctly. I would be doing the back of the helmet however with it being very plain just from the side and the front view will suffice for what I need to get this helmet modeled correctly. After all of the modeling I will need to...

Synoptic Project So far Personal & Group

So this post is just an update on the Synoptic Project so far as of right now we are onto week three of the synoptic project and so far the project that I am working is one of the ones I voted for when we were choosing which of the projects we were going to do. So for my job role in the project I am a 3d Modeler and so far I have been working on models that can be placed around the environment to fill up the environment so that it doesn't look empty when you are walking around the environment. So far I am enjoying the project and so far I am getting on pretty well with the task I have been given however it doesn't really have that much to it as I was just told to make some models to place in the environment so even though I know how the project needs to look and the theme of the project it is still quite hard to get the right type of models to go inside the environment. I have managed the work pretty efficiently so I am never left with nothing to do I have made sure that I ...
