• CONCEPT:
•  The inspiration project 2 design was a surveillance camera.  The concept of the design was to create an arm mount for the camera which had an organic shape. The head of camera is able to rotate as the dowel and the hole allows some movement. The shape was also inspired by a tornado as the bottom of the camera mount is smaller than the top part. The serial slice will be in a  horizontal  direction.

• TECHNIQUES:
• The sculpture was made in rhino by breaking down the main shapes into smaller pieces in construction   and what appeared to be the basic shape.  Using the truncated pyramid, under the solid tool section a few objects were created. Using the twist command, the neck/ arm of the camera was formed. The rotate command along with the twist was also used to form the lower part of the arm. The scale command was used to a transform it to the desired shape. The head was made by creating a large truanted pyramid and adjusting the end to reach the final shape. The base was made using the rectangle command in combination with the line command, delsubcurv command and the mirror command to create the base’s larger shape. The smaller shape was made by using the scale command, The cylinder weight on the base also required the use of the mirror command. To create an even placement.  The cable was made by using the cylinder command and the bend command to create its shape. Throughout this process the Boolean2objects command was implement when needed.

• MATERIALS: In Keyshot the cloth weave material was applied and the color was matched by looking up the hex number for carboard. The wood was replicated by using the fine grain and altering the brightness of the wood to make it look like a different wood, the metal weights was colored by selecting the polished aluminum. The lens was made by selecting the green glass. The environment selected to showcase the design was a parking lot and how it would be placed. The lighting was set to product and the denoise setting was enabled.   In the post process the lactite glue was used to bind the layer after the dowel was glue to the cube. The cube was also attached to the larger base. Due the weigh of the camera head I placed some metal cylinder on the base to make it heavier. The mic head’s cap was made by using a garden to tool to bend and cut to it shape.  The cable wire and eye( lens) were attached using the glue.  No color change was needed in the base as it was a good contrast to the cardboard’s dark color.
