Today we learned how to use Rhino to make 2D shapes. We worked on creating shapes, cutting and trimming shapes, changing the size of shapes, and copying shapes. We also learned how to enter commands. Using these skills we aquired we started to make 2.5D creatures. This meant that the creatures were 3D, but made out of 2D shapes. We split into groups to work on this project. My group decided to make an octopus. We decided that we would have the tentacles controlled in a way similar to the way people controll puppets. We agreed that the head of the octopus would be made of a flat piece of cardboard in the shape of an octopus head with circles around it to make it 3D. Tommorw we will start to model the parts of the octopus on Rhino.
