I started working on this project on September 6th, 2023. Some of the things that I like about this project include animating the ball, Experimenting using different tools, and coming up with solutions to challenging problems. Even though there were many things that I liked about it, there were some that were quite annoying and difficult to complete. These things include trying to place the ball at its starting point (as I spent a while trying to figure out where to place the ball by manually changing its coordinates and also how to move the ball accurately by using the move tool), trying to get the video onto Weebly, as I ran into some problems there. (such as trying to figure out what tool in the blog editor to use to put in my video. At first, I tried to use an HD video but figured out that I would need a subscription in order to do so, then then When I figured out how to add it using the mp4 file's HTML code embedded in Google Drive, it took me some time to realize that the link to the video on google drive was privated and that it needed not to be. While this project has some hard parts, it also has its easy bits. Some examples include animating the ball (because 3ds max automatically puts in a set velocity for you when you make the ball go from point a to point b in n seconds. This makes it super easy for beginners to animate things in 3ds max), Adding in the shapes (because there is a large variety of tools that you can use to do things like duplicate shapes in different ways, change their dimension, their coordinates, shape, and a lot more.), and moving around in the editor. (like adding in the shapes, there is a large variety of usable tools for this. The reset view tool is a prime example that I use a lot.) The ways in which I or anybody can use what I have learned from this in the real world include 3D modeling, Animation, Architecture, graphic design, and so much more. It's safe to say that I have learned a lot from this project. Some examples of the skills and knowledge that I have learned to produce this project include an increased understanding on how to create blog posts on Weebly, and a good understanding of the basics of 3ds max, which include rendering an image and a video, animating, camera control, and many other tools found in 3ds max. While this project has taught me a lot, there may have been some things done to make the lesson for the project better. Personally, I would recommend adding a larger variety of tools needed to complete this project, as the tools we've used for this are very base level to the point where there could've been changes done to the criteria of the project to better our understanding of some more obscure and useful tools.

AuthorHey there! My name is Ivan Kacvinsky. I am currently taking a Computer modeling and animation course. What I have learned how to do so far in this class is the use of 3DS max. a 3D modeling software that you can render, 3D model and animate in. All of the three things listed are things that I have been taught how to do and have done.
