3D Magic - y0

This week in my Digital Media class we learned about 3D art and used a program called 123D Catch to make some. I have just come back from a trip to Iowa to see my dad, and my instructor's emails talking about the program were kind of ominous... however, I didn't think it was that bad. There are some parameters on the object you could use, it couldn't be transparent or shiny... Since I'm always tripping over dog toys, I decided to use one of them for this project. I set Mr. Squeakers down on a piece of newspaper so the program could use the paper as reference points; unfortunately the online editor isn't working so I wasn't able to get rid of the newspaper. My first go around I took 36 pictures, that wasn't enough and my object didn't render properly, so I chucked those and started over. By the way, did you know it was 32 degrees today? My house does not get good natural light, so I went BACK outside to shoot again - this time 60 shots... much better but there was still a little spot under Mr. Squeakers' hat that wasn't captured so I ended up taking 4 more shots from a low angle to get that all pieced together. All in all, I enjoyed this project and it wasn't nearly as hard as I expected it to be. Anyway, here he is:
