Today our sub prof. showed us how to do some 3D animation!!!! We used Blender to build a coffee cup, however due to time constraints, my coffee cup is still in the gray scale stage… Comparing this process to our work in java (processing), something felt off about this method of creating visuals. Although I loved how modular the blender program was, I missed having the code that explained the logic of whatever visual manifestation was on my screen. I’m definitely more partial to programming in a text editor or applications like processing because I’m visually able to read, write and design an algorithm. With Blender, the visuals are impressive, but I’m left wondering “What is the computer thinking?”
