CAAm1

CAAm1


Da var det endelig tid for Revit!
Moduloppgaven CAAm1 er å starte på et hus som så skal gjøres ferdig i CAAm2. Første del var å begynne på huset ut fra disse arbeidstegningene.

It's finally time for Revit.
This module task was about creating a house which we will finish in CAAm2. First part was to start from this drawings.

Her er tegningene ferdig redigert i Photoshop
Here are drawings edited in Photoshop

Vi fikk også fasader visninger.
We got also facades views.

 

 I tillegg skulle vi lage en Site basert på kotelinjene på dette bildet:
 In addition, we should create a Site based on contour lines in this photo:

Jeg har importert første etasje plan og tegne vegger, vinduer og dører.

 I've imported ground floor drawing and draw walls, windows and doors.

For 2. etasje, valgte jeg å ikke bruke tegningen som base bilde. I stedet brukte jeg den første etasje som guide og jeg plassert 2. etasje tegning i en egen Revit fil for å ta målinger.

 For the 2nd floor, I chose not to use the drawing as a base image. Instead, I used the 1st floor as guide in Revit and I placed the 2nd floor drawing in a separate file to take measurements.

Så jeg gjorde taket, men selv etter mange prøvelser jeg fortsatt ikke kan koble to deler av taket på høyre side av bygningen. Jeg vet ikke hvorfor.

Then I made roof, but even after many trials I still can't join to two parts of the roof on the right side of the building. I really don't know why.

Etter å legge toposurface til mitt prosjekt og noen trær ferdige (for tiden) oppgaven ser slik ut

After adding toposurface to my project and some trees finished (for the time being) task looks like this

For ikke å glemme her er prosjektplanen for denne øvelsen. Det tok mye lengre tid enn planlagt. Jeg hadde mye problemer med å lese planene.

 

Not to forget here is the project plan for this exercise. It took a lot longer than planned. I had a lot of problems with reading the plans.

 

CAVm3

Moduloppgaven CAVm3 har gått ut på å lage en animert presentasjon av messestanden fra CADHP1, og legge til noen andre objekter vi har jobbet med i det siste. 

This modul task was about making animated presentation of  trade show stand from CADHP1 and adding some of the other object that we had work on.


Day 1

 Jeg starte denne oppgave med å rydde litt opp min messestanden. Jeg fjerne noen teksturene og objekter for å ha mer oversiktlig scene. Jeg har lagt også noen av mine tegninger som bilder i scenen og objekter jeg laget senere.

I started this task by cleaning my exhibition stad a little. I deleted some of the textures and objects so I have more clear scene. I added also some of my drawings as pictures in the scene and some of the objects I've created earlier.

 Day 2


I dag har jeg jobbet på min animasjon. Jeg måtte gjøre det to ganger, fordi den første gang, ble kameraet beveger seg hele tiden, og noen av gjenstandene måtte dukke opp rett foran kameraet, og jeg kunne ikke helt gjøre det.
Siden det var en Tv i stativet, bestemte jeg meg for å prøve ut ved hjelp av en avi film som bitmap så det ville vise under animasjonen. Jeg brukte avi som ble gjørt i tog animation.



Today I worked on my animation. I had to do it twice, because the first time, camera was moving constantly and some of the objects had to show up right in front of the camera and I couldn't quite make it work.
Since there was a Tv in the stand, I decided to try out using a avi movie as a bitmap so it would display during the animation. I used movie which was made during train animation.

In this module I continued to work on my espresso pot from CAMm1. This task was divided to two days of work.

Day 1

Today I finished working on my espresso pot. I made every part in seperate file, I also finished parts that was started in CAMm1.

 
Next step was to create subassemblies and main assembly so it would look like in the dwf that we received.

This time I added screws, washers and nuts from Content Center. Every part was also fully constraint.
This is how it looks after today.

Day 2

Today I worked on mini version of my espresso pot. We got some of the new dimensions, but most of them we had to figure out ourselves.

I started by copying project folder and renamig it as Espressokanne_mini. Then I started to work on changing the parts. After making few changes I wanted to check if the "big" espresso pot hasn't change. Unfortunately it did. I don't know why it did, besause i change the project file before making any changes. So I had to rename all of the sub- and main assemblies by adding "mini" to the names.
I also turned Inventor off and on again. Don't know which helped but the most importand thing is that now it works.

My constraints was well maid (I'm so smart :D) so after problem I described earlier, assemblies weren't such a problem. This is how the mini version looks like now.

After I finished mini version I returned to big espresso pot and made an presentation and animation.


Here is how it looks when disassembled:

And here is animation:

After the animation I started to work on my drawings. First I made assembly drawing (from presentation file) with parts list, and then production drawings of each of the parts.

Then I made dwf file with all of the drawings and 3D model.

As you can see I used much more time on drawing than expected. It is still not easy for me, but I'm learning how to make them accurate as well as "quick" drawn. I used also more time on the presentation but I think it was time well spent.

All in all it was great task aand I had a lof of fun with it.

 Da var andre semester i gang og Inventor er neste program å sette seg inn i.

Now the second semester started and the next program to learn is Inventor.

I denne moduloppgave måtte vi å modellere delene til en espressokanne og sette dem sammen. Vi fikk en DWF-fil som viser bare halve del av en modell. Det er lettere å måle.

In this module task we had to model parts of an espresso pot and put them together. We got a dwf file that show only half part of a model. It's easier to measure.

 Vi måtte modellere 5 deler dor denne oppgave. Kanne_U, Kanne_O, Deksel, Grep og Knopp. Vi også sette dem inn sammen i sammenstilling.

We had to model 5 parts dor this task. Kanne_U, Kanne O, Cover, Grip and Knopp. We also put them together in assembly.

 Kanne_O var mest vanskelig del av alt. Det tok meg veldig lang tid fordi jeg prøvde mye ting.

Kanne_O (espresso canh upper part) was the most difficult part of all. It took me a really long time since I tried a lot of things.

 

Til slutt lagde jeg sammenstilling med alle deler. Jeg sette ogsa skruer, skiver og nutter i. Jeg sette alle constrainer.

In the end I made assembly with all parts. I put also screws, washers and nuts. I put also all the constraints.

 Jeg lagde også plan som viser hvilken tid har jeg brukt til alle deler.

I made also plan which shows how much time I used for all parts.

 

 

CADHP1 Final Day

CADHP1 Final Day


This is the last day.
The last two days every program that could misbehave... did. Talk about working under pressure.

When I tried to print DWF from AutoCAD there was almost every time some error which I couldn't find and fix. After a couple times I did manage to finish it.

Unfortunately I didn't have enough time to photoshopp my render photos as good as I would want to. I only had time to change one part of the photo and put flower in two of them. I'm very dissapointed with this because I hoped for higest grade.

I wrote report and created a video which I posted on Youtube (you can find it below). Not my longest video but I was running out of time.


To sum up my work:

I started with this referance photo:

This is my presentation photo

2 hour render, res 2400 x 1600

And  renders from 3Ds Max, with a little help of Photoshop (1 hour render, res 1200x800)

Picture 2

Picture 3

After a little more work done in Photoshop:

This is video of my work

I send today:
- report
- 3DsMax file
- DWF file with 12 layouts:
                  - Armchair
                  - bar
                  - bar footrest
                  - table
                  - front desk
                  - char
                  - football table
                  - glass table
                  - leaflets stand
                  - TV
                  - Stand with dimensions
                  - Stand with part list which was created by Data extraction from attributes
- AutoCAD files (besides those which were use to DWF)
                   - canopy
                   - carpet
                   - flower pot
                   - lighting box
                   - wall


It was a long task, but very sitisfying in the end, even without making everything perfect.

CADHP1 Day 14

CADHP1 Day 14             1.10.2015

Animation render was succesfull. One down many more to go.

Today I spent almost 4 hours trying to uninstall Photoshop. I couldn't do it so I turned to my seven years old laptop. It should be retired long time ago. Finally I did managed to install Photoshop but it run so slow that even making alpha mask of an flower was a long task.

In the meantime when I worked on photoshop on one computer I made renders it the 3DsMax. I made 3 render pictures 1200x800, each rendered for 1 hour and one presentation photo 2400x1600 2 hour render.

At this point alomost everything was ready. But between "almost" and "ready" is actually a really big gap. I couldn't zip Max files because render was in use. Couldn't use Photoshop because I had to wait on the pictures. And something went wrong (again) in AutoCAD. When I was using Sheet Set The program didn't always see the connection between files. So once again I had to restart program.

CADHP1 Day 13

CADHP1 Day 13            30.09.2015

I never expected that layouts could take so much time. But if you look at those you understand

I made animation path in Max and put camera_walkthrough. I'll set render so it will be done in the morning.
This will be one of the shortest animation I've ever done but on the other hand it will be rendered :)

CADHP1 Day 12

CADHP1 Day 12               29.09.2015


Max update

I added textures on planes so they will be visible on renders. But when I started to search for them I realized that I have to put them together from multiple different sources. Unfortunately my Photoshop trial ended so I had to focus on learning how to use Gimp. Makings logos wasn't even so hard but I have no idea how to make alpha masks in Gimp.

And more layouts:
