This course has two main components. The first,half of the semester will concentrate on the,completion of a compressed project. This can be a,stand-alone mini-project that provides yet another,opportunity in the area of desired professional,specialization, or the project can be an extension,and completion of the one conducted in the,previous semesters’ GRT-701. For example, if a,vehicle exterior was the focus for GRT-701, the,mini project in GRT-702 could be the interior for,that exterior or vice versa. The second half of,the semester will then focus on the finalization,and refinement of student portfolios and online,promotional presence in preparation for the end of,the year exhibition and industry interviews. This,course will result in a final exterior or interior,design executed as a technical digital 3D model,data set capable of further engineering,assessment, fabrication, and/or animation.
