Paper Prototype (official)

Image
 This week we were tasked with making a prototype of our paper project to practice getting the form and details of our form right. For this, I am designing a Wii remote (as I'm sure is evident by my other posts lolol) I started off by taking the base model I designed last week and added the buttons that I was planning to add. Then I proceeded to unroll everything and prepared it for printing.  Unfolded buttons  *Some of the buttons in this page specifically are way too big. I did resize them but theyre still a little big on the prototype. I will fix this for the official model, however I struggled a lot to fold the smaller buttons so they may have to remain oversized in order to keep their form. Constructing the base! Went fairly well, except for the top sides. I realized I screwed up the way it should fold together a little so again I will fix that later on. I used the blunt backside of some tweezers to score the paper and it worked super well.  Final Model! As you ...

Paper Prototype (PRACTICE)

I'm not entirely sure if we had to blog this but I've done it now and I think it's a fun record of my progress ٩(˘◡˘)۶   For my paper replica, I chose the main base of the wii remote to model. I thought this was the most important component to experiment with since it is most of the design. For the first step, modeling the remote, I actually didn't have as much trouble as last time. This version is definitely better then the last one and unfolded into a more functional form that can be easily refolded. Unfolding also went smoothly. For some reason last time I was stuck in the idea that the unfolded version had to be one connected piece, which definitely screwed me up for a few designs. Here the triangle ends meshed with the small triangle folds below it so I separated them. It's not shown in this photo, but I realized that the small corner rectangles (on the right of design) had to come off too, so they are also separated as shown in later photos. The unfolded desig...

Remix Project

  Remix Project What is remix culture? To me, remix culture is taking one object and merging it with another to create something new and interesting. There are various ways to remix, one example being through juxtaposition. Remix culture is incredibly important as it allows people to expand on others creativity to create limitless ideas and creations. Butterfly Skateboard For this creation I was thinking of different ways to remix a skateboard. It occurred to me that the board of a skateboard could look like the body of a butterfly, so I added wings. I feel like this sorta follows the feeling of "taking flight" when doing a jump when skateboarding. Skateboard by Nambler - Thingiverse https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4434080 Deviled Egg This devil egg was an attempt at making a more literal version of a deviled egg. I modeled the egg and the tail (hard to see in the picture but the tail is on the backside) and then remixed it by adding horns and dragon wings (which I used as ...
