Week 4- Virtual Reality: Cityscape

Cityscape


           For this week we were to create three buildings that were to be created with a limited color palette. We each got one color and were allowed to use the its complimentary color along with black, white, and neutrals. My color was violet so all of my buildings are created using purple and a golden yellow. This project was done using a vive headset, the steam app, and Google Tilt Brush. Within Tilt Brush I used various brushes like the highlighter and the tapered brush to create texture, Windows and light both inside and outside of the buildings. I also used the straight edge tool and the shape tool in the software to assist in the construction of the buildings.

           All of the buildings I created have something to do with what I love. I have a passion for baking, musical theatre, and space so naturally I created a bakery, a theatre, and an observatory. For the bakery, I just followed a very simplistic outline. It contained the minimal things that a place needs for it to function as a bakery, a counter space and a kitchen with the added feature of a few tables and chairs for the option of dining in. The observatory is shaped like a sphere to mimic the shape of a planet. The inside of it is made to function as a screen that translates the images received by the telescope to create an all encompassing experience. For the theater I made it a kind of small scale theater that would be relatively functional. It has seats, a stage and a backstage area, a ticket booth, bathrooms, an elevator, and even a refreshments stand. It's very small considering that it only contains an orchestra level and a dress circle level.
