A simple step-by-step guide to working with the maya graphe editor by creating a bouncing ball.
Create a 3D printed lantern in 20 steps.
Make cool wall art using a 3D printer. Use themes such as superheroes, space, fantasy, holidays, etc.
We can use de Casteljau's algorithm to calculate curves using any number of points.
Let's take a closer look at the weights used during subdivision. Do we have to be careful when selecting weights?
Let's look more closely at how light bounces when it strikes an object. We'll cover reflected and refracted rays.
This resource was created by Jeanine Figueroa, in collaboration with Dawn DeTurk, Hannah Blomstedt, and Julie Albrecht, as part of ESU2's Integrating the Arts project. This project is a four year initiative focused on integrating arts into the core curriculum through teacher education, practice, and coaching.
Are we really creating parabolic curves using this construction? Let's gain some insight first.
Use an array to store many objects as well as create any shape you can imagine. Click here to review objects.
Now you can start scaling your shapes to make your lamp look younger.
Next we need to explore the mathematics of scaling.
Now you are ready to start subdividing your own shapes with more than 4 points!
How can trees be combined to count robots with many parts?
Now it's time for a really meaty problem! How can we count the number of possible casts when given a large set of robots to choose from?
We need to be careful with the order of scaling and translation. But why?
Tree diagrams allow us to visualize these counting problems using any number of parts.
Next you'll use functions to *store* your deformer functions.
Okay we know how to calculate the touching point, great! Next let's think about how we can prove this is true.
Next let's build a blade of grass using a parabolic arc as a spine.
This project is a fun way for students to think about the four elements of the marketing mix through research of a product/service and breaking it down to examine each element.
