Project Statement:
I could have made my laser beams look more realistic. If I made them look a little more transparent, and a little less of a solid color, I could have achieved this. Although I added a glass node, it wasn't enough. I remembered that we made the house in the snowman project transparent, but I couldn't recall how we did that. Also, to get a better balance, I could make the TIE fighter slightly bigger, or add a few more of them. This project definitely expressed more of the elements of art than the previous ones. First of all, you could see more depth in both the X wing and TIE fighter than in both of the previous projects. This was because there were a lot more interesting shapes. Colors and textures were also showcased. There were many different color contrasts and glass showed texture. The space between the spaceship made it look like an actual spaceship battle scene. For someone starting this project, my only piece of advice would be to be as creative as possible with the colors, textures, and shapes of this scene. In this project we've had the most freedom in this area by far. What makes a scene stand out are the unique color contrasts, textures, and many other things. While being creative, also make sure that the scene makes sense and there is balance, unity, contrasts, and variety.
