Project Two Progress

Ive now decided im scrapping the whole toolbox idea, because to be honest it just wasn't working for me. My new and final idea i finds works better for me.

My finalised object will be a book, placed on a table on its own, the meaning behind this is that all my life, a lot of people have refered to me as the 'bookworm', i feel that the book portrays an important part of my personality, during my childhood i used to read books such as Enid Blyton's and Jaquline Wilson's and just get lost in the book. I have placed the book on a table as if its one thing i have noticed about myself, although i dont do it meaningfull, i have a tendency to distance myself away from people, although i am capable of working as part of a team efficently, i like to sometimes just be left to my own thought. So basically the book is me and the chaperters inside are about me.

How will it will work?

I have started the 3D work already. In 3DS Max i have created my table with my book placed on top of the table, the camera i away from the table and book so it is all in full view, then it zooms into the table and the book becomes the main focus, the book cover then opens and reveals the front chapters page. What i have yet to do is animate the pages opening, i think i am going todo this in flash as i would much rather have a simple movie clip which i will feel at ease editing.

On the chapters page will be the different chapters to each of my different objects, the links will be rollovers and when you click on one of the links a page will turn, displaying the object that has been clicked on.

Toolbox Screengrabs

These are screenshot of what i have been able to create for my toolbox so far. Im quite impressed with the lock, because i wasn't expecting it to turn out as good as it did. Ie added indents to the toolbox, to make it actually resemble a tool box, although theres still more work that needs tdoing to it. At the minuite im having trouble with the lid of the toolbox, because i want to add more detail to it. Overall though im happy with what ive done so far.

The term Happiness Machines could also be termed in another way, 'peoples desires'. Machines refers to the people, people who where gradually brainwashed (machines) into a particular way of thinking, this was channeled through what they desired rather than what they needed. having what they desired made people feel good about themselves, i think in a sense it made them feel like they were better people, sexy and independent, this is where the happiness comes into it, if you have what you want your a more satisfied and happy person.
