Week 11
HI. Preparing for the coming final submission
This blog will be a continuous update based on the previous blog.
1. Facing a little technical issue with the software
This week, unfortunately there were a few technical obstacles that came into my way. First of all, there's an internal software bug that broke one of my scene, which right now, I will need to build the entire scene again. I can copy and paste my existing scene to a new one, however, I am running out of space.
Currently, I will have to subscribe to the software for at least a month to finish this microsite smoothly for submission. Hopefully everything works just fine until my final submission. *fingers crossed*
2. Presenting Airbnb infomation
Examples: ↓
As mentioned in previous blog, I will presenting the Airbnb information by showing the Distance + Area + Price range. These are the examples of how the information will be displayed. Progress wise, I am again researching the places and their associated areas along with the available accomodations.
3. Planning concept videos
After discussing with my advisor, there are specifically 3 features that are more technical heavy that I don't feel like prioritizing it. As I want to focus on setting up the entire microsite nicely.
The 3 features that require more technicalities are:-
Dynamic content
Geolocation API
Gamification feature
And as a solution, I will be crafting 3 concept videos to showcase these 3 features properly. I have rougly planned out the flow of the videos and will continue refining it for submission.
4. 3D animation for scenes planning
Even though all 3D scenes are done, right now, I will need to focus on animating the 3D models in the scene. First of all, I will need to plan out the 3D models that need to be animated, and slowly working on it.
Only those necessary 3D models will be animated in the scene, especially the trees and plants. As for water, because tutorials does not show how it can be animated using armature, I might not make it work when it is exported out and imported into PlayCanvas. I will still try my best. Currently, my priority will be working on those 3D models that I am confident in making it work! I might try and add some relevant animals into the scene too!
That's all for now, in my next blog, I will be updating more progress, especially when it's exploration week + CNY holidays. Hopefully my energy is still here to work on the microsite.
