Capstone Timeline
I put quite a bit of thought into my Capstone Timeline let alone my project. I looked at the entire timeline as a whole and decided how I was going to break up my project into smaller managable pieces. I have decided to do 10 high resolution and highly detailed models. Before the semester started, I plan to have ALL models at least started on BEFORE the beginning of the semester. This way, each week of the capstone semester, I can simply rework the and add more detail to my models each week. And each week of the capstone semester I have dedicated to 1 to 3 models for retouch and finishing. Finally, the last two weeks of the semester I have devoted to creating and rendering my final video which will basically be a showcase of my models.

Capstone Ideas Sept 3, 2012
I have a few ideas for my capstone project.
11. I create
a 3D animated short story with very simple characters. The story will be that of a guy who has a
horrible day in corporate America. For
example, he gets stuck in traffic, he forgets his work ID to get in, someone
parked in his assigned parking spot, he gets rained on, there are tons of
people on his elevator and the elevator stops at every floor until finally
reaching his floor on a very tall high rise.
Finally, he sits at his cubical only to discover his office is closed
for the day. Ha!
2. I create a 3D animated trailer of a screen play
I wrote. It’s a great story of a man who
was crossed by his army buddies. Things
get out of control when Jon Maze, the star of the movie, girlfriend is brutally
raped and murdered right in front of him.
To make things worse, Maze is framed for the murder. Fortunately, It doesn’t take maze, number one
special forces killer in the world, to break out of prison and begin killing
those murders who killed his girl one by one in a suspenseful series of
calculated and sometimes gruesome attacks.
3. My main talent and focus is 3D modeling. So I was also considering doing a showcase of
my EXTREMELY detailed 3D models.
Everything from cars, motorcycles, to people, weapons, and animals.

Capstone
I believe what a capstone is, at least in our terms, is the
culmination of one’s entire college career into one very large, complex, and
amazing project. I feel extremely
nervous about my capstone. I am still at
“writer’s block” and I only have two semesters left. I do believe that this experience will be
eye-opening for me. I will have the
opportunity to really let my mind and imagination run wild!!! I will gain an incredible amount of
experience.
And as far as spending two full semesters on this…honestly,
I don’t think it’s enough time; but for something so important to the future
development of your career as an artist, you have to take all the time
possible. Our capstone, to the outside
person or employer, is who we are as an artist.
It displays all of our skills and most important, it showcases our
talent! This is extremely critical to
sell yourself after college.
