Mile Stone 1 Research

The first thing that I research for the task one was the 3D Computing Technology on photo realistic modeling. This research is adapted from the other module of 3D Computing Technology. I have look into the 3D modeling skills, 3rd Party Renderers that will help the model to look realistic and also Vray Renders an plug in for 3D max for reality rendering.
Then for the second research is for the Circle Game Play. I have look into character design for games. I look into different journals that talks about character design for example :

Mirjam Eladhari and Craig A. Lindley (2009) "Digital Games Research Conference" Zero Game Studio
Emotive game play, player character, mind modeling, MMORPG, emergence, Massively Multiplayer, characterization.
Petri Lankoski (2004) "Character Design Fundamentals for Role-Playing Games"
Understand how player experiences the game, depends on the player to design the game. Set the Goals, Habitus and emotions depending on the player. Then  design the character, then from character to game
Henry Jenkins (2005) "Games Design As Narrative Architecture"
The question among the game fans, designers, and shcolars in the relationship between games and stories.


Then I start to compare two of the character design software Z-Brush and Mudbox. This two software is usually use in games company and some freelance company.

The last part for my research is to look into cars. This is the area that I am most interested in. I have look into different car racing games and some super cars. Then I have also look into different kind of car racing that is going on in the real world. For example the touring car racing, Rally car racing, Formula One and more. All this racing is still happening around us. I also look into car turing and custom car vinyl. Car tuning I look into which part of tuning will do what effect to the car . Custom car vinyl is very popular in Japan they sticks different type of sticker on the car and also they have different kind of choices to choose.

Mile Stone 1 Draft

After the last post I have speak to Brian the Course leader. He told me that the collaborative practice is not very suitable for the research practice. He recommend me to look into what I am interested. For example( cars, some design or things like that). Since I am interested jn cars so I have research a bit into cars and Brian have give me some direction on researching in cars,(for example car racing, sports car, and the car paint design). After the meeting with Brian I take his recommendation and change the idea of collaborative and change it to car. I will look into more detail for the next upload.

This is the diagram that I will be research in.

Post 4- Research Idea's (more research)

This week we are ask to think of your module and how are we going present our research for Task One. We are ask to think of a "Mind Map" of the area that we are going to research in. A few software have been shown to us on this session so that we can get all our idea and put it in mind map. The software Prezi  is a very useful tools to use for mind mapping because it has a large are where you can work on so that you can arrange your information.
So then I have think of my module and the research that I have done i come up with a diagram.

This is all the modules that I am doing now. This is just a brief idea of what I will be covering. The middle bit that all circle have cross is the area that i will be looking at for the final research. This will be shown to the lecturer for next week for some feedback on this idea.

Post 3 Research Practice Ideas

This week's Research Practice was conducted by the group leader for Interactive Media, Salam Strudwick. During the session she ask each of us to think about what are we going to do after the Masters and what we are aiming for.
After we get some ideas we tell her what our aims are and which area are we going to do it. Then she suggested us to go to some of the undergraduates tutorials and workshops for relevant technique. I told her that my idea was to build a game level. Then she ask me to think more about it.

Week 3

This week we have been given a task in class to research for half an hour then write a hundred word for what we are researching. We are split into groups. Our group got the task Motion Graphics. This is hard to research on cause there is only a few online talking about motion graphics. So we tried our best to look for all the things online in google(scholar) and websites. Our research is not good but we get to look at others research. The point to do this research is wanting us to reference even pictures and everything we got online. As long as is not your word then you got to reference. So now I got to think about what I got to do for my research chapter and get a long with it. Hope I have the idea really soon. Is there any idea please feel free to post a comment.

Fist blog for Research Practice

This is the blog for research practice. This blog is to keep track of what i have done and what I need to do. This blog will be update frequently.
