Day 6 of my 3D memories model

Here I have used my class mate and my idea and cut the panels down and slot them in between the metal support rods. Now I carefully sanded them down making sure they would slot in and not be sanded down too much that they would fall out.

Now that the side panels are sorted now I am going to use "mod podge matte" to transfer my images onto wood this way my structure looks better and there aren't glue stains and ruined photos with creases all over my structure.

Day 5 of my 3D memories model

Here I measured out the side panels for my structure, this I did on one large sheet making sure I didn't waste material as well as making it easier and quicker to cut out all the pieces. Once the pieces were cut out I sanded them down so they'd fit perfectly.

Unfortunately I sanded the edges a little too much and they fell out so me and my class mate came up with the idea of cutting them down to fit in between the metal rods, this made the structure look better and the pieces would fit better this way showing off more of the structure in the process.

Memories evaluation

My project on memories was based on my own memories and how some may have faded like some parts of the town I live in as it changes in recent years certain aspects will be forgotten. Through the project my research and development of my ideas went well as it helped me decide on what I would do for my final piece. Through the course of the project I had to amend and change aspects of my final piece as some parts didn't work so we had to swap them out and change certain aspects such as adding in side panels and standing the structure up with metal rods. My own learning I find was very productive as it helped me choose how the project would pan out. I did meet the deadline and my final piece was to a good standard but I feel I could have made my final piece better by adding more features to it.

Through out my project my peers and tutors have helped me particularly with finding artists and helping me progress with my final piece, helping me with my final piece making it more efficient in what I wanted to do and where I wanted to go with it.

My progress in this project has opened my eyes to how much work I can achieve and complete with the time I am given as well as progress with my ideas over the course of the project to give a well presented final piece. From this project I can see how I can progress with my next project with techniques I've learned in the 3D workshop with the materials I've used. In my next project I will take 3D aspects n use them in my next project, my FMP such as metal work and structural work.

To prepare for my interviews I have mounted and used my portfolio to present my work in a professional manor. I do need to work on my communication in what I want to say and to help me put across my points in my interviews. These points I need to revise and look at will help me with further progression situations.
