Workflow & Pipeline¶

Find own workflow & Pipeline solution.

Start¶

Usually , start from a brunch of question.

We don’t start from idea. we start the whole how it works , and then get idea.

We don’t start its shape.

We first discuss the product’s over-all architecture, rather than its shape.

How do we create a huge range of products and still have a clear and singular opinion?”

Project¶

• Digital-consumer

• Interior design

  • Chair
  • Cup
  • Sofa

• Architecture

• Vehicle
• Robot
• Universe

• Step 1: Pick a project.
• Step 2: Set a deadline.
• Step 3: Put all ideas into this project.

How to choose a project ?¶

I have to choose a project.
How choose a project? choose what ?
From love? from the future ?

Deadline meaning¶

The meaningful of deadline is not forces you to not even think about creative blocks.

When you are working professionally, you don’t have time for creative blocks. I know that sounds weird, but it’s true. The deadline forces you to not even think about creative blocks. I usually just get the project and start cranking.

Art idea¶

Tools¶

3D sketch ？？ No 2d sketch

Get Idea workflow:¶

Realize Idea workflow:¶

• Get Idea

  • From Art Principle
  • From Art Idea

• Realize Idea
  Based on Original idea from Get Idea.

  • Realize for original Idea = Prototype

    • Text ( original idea description)
    • Graphic and Text ( 2D ! 3D )
    • Animation

  • Realize Detail Idea

    • Get Detail Idea from Original idea and Get (new) Idea
    • Research for detail idea
    • Prototype for detail Idea
      • Text ( detail idea description )
      • Graphic and Text ( 2D ! 3D )
      • Animation

Get original Idea (Text)¶

From Art idea and Art Principle.

Some idea is about material,
Some idea is about shape,
Some idea is about color,
So, combine all in one.

Describe original idea. (Text)¶

Write an original idea description with text.

这里idea 描述是原始Idea描述。不是详细的参数列表。

Prototype for original idea(Tech with tool)(Graphic)¶

2D Rough sketch for prototype.
- Photoshop
- Blender

3D Rough sketch for prototype.

3D Polygon Low poly for prototype.
3D Polygon high poly with sub-d for prototype.
3D Non-destructive polygon with modifiers for prototype.

3D Procedural modeling with Nodes for prototype.

VR/AR/MR for prototype.

3D Animation for prototype.

Make some 3D rough sketch from Original idea description¶

3D 粗糙草图的作用是表达原始 idea。 用3D粗糙草图表达文字原始 idea。 不是表达详细的参数列表。

Researching for original idea if need.¶

According to the original idea, do researching.
If your original idea is about material, you have to researching it.
If your original idea is about shape, researching it.
if your original idea is about color, researching it
If your original idea is emotional , researching it.

But if your original idea is NOT about material, don’t researching at this process.
This time is express your ORIGINAL IDEA, not all stuffs.

Yep. Focusing on original idea, not all stuffs.

What’s the NEXT ?¶

3D Sketch and researching again for more details with ask why, how, what.
Some idea is about material,
Some idea is about shape,
Some idea is about color,
So, combine all in one.
It’s hard to say end of 3D Sketch. Sometimes I have to think about idea for modeling, even animation.
