Making 3D Puppets for Film
Jessica Nebeker, a Studio Community Project participant, leads us through the journey of designing, engineering, and fabricating puppets for short films. Learn about the workflow from Fusion 360, into 3D printing, physical assembly, and finally the filming process of these wonderful art pieces.
Lessons in Design
The workshops guided the students through a typical design workflow: brainstorm ideas, sketch and rough out those ideas on paper and finally model the sketches in 3D space with clay.
“Hello World” - CompBot
CompBot has a brain and body just like you and I, allowing it to recognize when someone new has entered the elevator area, light up and compliment them.
