3D modeling
Class A modeling, CAD, 3D printing, and digital prototyping in a number of modeling programs: Autodesk Alias, Autodesk Fusion 360, Blender, combining all to produce exciting results
conceptualization
Effectively communicating concepts and ideas visually to create interesting ideas. Explaining my thought process to create a background for each project to build upon
rendering and animations
Rendering in environments is important to effectively communicate the design. From utilizing sphere environments, to building simple scenes, animations, and realistic visuals, in VRED, Blender and Premiere Pro, I can create useful images and animations to convey the projects
sketching
Conveying ideas through sketching is crucial. From exploring ideas, to developing new iterations of designs and having references for 3D modeling, sketching is the basis for any designer
hands-on
Clay modeling, scale prototyping, automotive painting woodworking, rapid prototyping, metal work, beginner knifemaking
material selection
Material knowledge, ability to select an appropriate material or combination for a certain product, based on properties and product requirements while applying color and trim ideas to create interesting products. This is also key in creating effective renders
