Today we are having and unprepared Design Futures test. we could not study for this test. i reckon i did alright understanding the concepts in the test but i think that i could have done better if i had payed more attention to learning everything this term.
Today was the day that we had to had in our assaignments i only had enough time to hand in my assaignment then leave so i didnt do very much in that lesson as i was away.
Today in design futures we worked on our assignment vases and 500 word essay. i finished mine that lesson and was very happy with my work and the amount of effort. i had a few glitches with my print out of the vase and the lengths and everything so only the base came out on the print.

Today in design futures we have just been playing around with designs for vases and we also got taught how to make stands for our vases and have two designs on the same page and mate them together today i made my first design with a stand it wasn't very good but i tried. i am very happy with the progress that i am making.
This lesson we got given a book that showed us how to advance our designs and how to make them more practical and complex. I had some troubles with this at first as i couldn't quite comprehend ow to do all of the techniques, but my friends and teacher helped me and got me up to speed and i ended up enjoying it.
This lesson in Design Furtures we have just been learning the basics of the application we are going to be using for the rest of the term and exploring ways that we are most comfortable using it. I am enjoying it a lot and have come up with some designs that i am very happy with.
this term in df we are learning how to create 3D models or vases, iPods and more on a computer. it has been very interesting learning how to all of it. At first it was a little hard to get the hang of it but now i ham pretty used to it, Mr Ward is also very helpful so it makes it much easier for my peers and myself to learn how to use the new application. My friends and peers are also very helpful, getting me up to speed when i was away and helping me if i am stuck and Mr Ward is busy. So far i am enjoying the new experience instead of being in the workshop all the time, it is different.
