We are in the final weeks of school and this is (I believe) my last personal reflection for the year. Meaning that next year upon hopefully going into CTE Advanced Studies I will start doing doing this again. Talking about next year this is what I have planned for next year upon being in the STEM career and specifically in the gaming industry, since I will be a senior next year (woohoo!!) and I will have to think about what I will have to in order to be successful in that industry. Really I do think this pathway is preparing me since it gives me various of skills needed. It also makes me more aware on where we are in technology. Talking about that I really need to research on the type of technology companies do and what requirements are needed to meet those. The reason I am thinking about STEM careers is because for me I enjoy tech., science and math. I had an experience that not many students had and that was having to go over to CISCO for five days to see what they do and why they do it. Why they do what they do. And really it was an amazing experience because I got to see that it wasn't just all techn., but as well as other components that make-up that company. And what's cool is that they have their own clinic and gym. As some of you may know I've been talking about how I wanted to be in the gaming industry for a while because it's something that I think I will enjoy doing. It's something I will try my best at, try to do more and even learn what I haven't learn from school. Of course, I just need o pass high school and start my dream. Although there is one thing about this and that is I want to become a licensed Veterinary Technician. This will will two years and then I will have to have experience. But I will probably (hopefully) get an internship during summer in CISCO and do projects fro my portfolio. I still will want that information that I got form high school because I know it will help me out a lot. So, either way in all hopes we will see how things go.

I have been modeling the walls, counters, desktops, etc. and then I looked over and saw text on some of the walls. Everything is going well even though some of the measurements are wrong I will still make it work. The textures really all I have to do it make sure they are in good shape. I know how to do some basics stuff within the program, which is good for me in some ways because I have the role of the 3d model. When I saw these things I thought of some ways to build the texts from shapes, but I knew that would take a while to do so I went to my trusty friend Google and searched how to put text in 3ds max the easy way.
In the Autodesk website I have searched for it and got this (Website -->knowledge.autodesk.com/support/3ds-max/learn-explore/caas/CloudHelp/cloudhelp/2016/ENU/3DSMax/files/GUID-7704F896-982D-4DCC-8041-5CCD24EC9E05-htm.html) I was really amazed, but also I was dumbfounded because I could've easily looked for it in 3ds max. I found that in shapes in "splines" there is a button called "Text" and behold you can do the text inside very easily. I absolutely loved this, I had to make sure though I checked something in order to see it in 3ds max and when I render it. Who knew it would be like that, like any other shapes you can change the parameters and make it bold, italics, etc. One thing I also ran into is that you animate the text inside 3ds max as well, bu that is something I shall talk about and do later. Right now I'm still trying to finish the model and trying to figure out tricks in 3ds max that can help me through-out this project Summary box-
We are almost done with the year as we are progressing towards exams. How fun! Now for this class I have been working on the 3D model of the room and it's going pretty well. I've been adding the textures to the walls, counters, monitors, etc. The thing is since that is taking a lot of my time I feel as though whether If I can do the whole school, but I will try my best to do this. Although now I have to plan things out since I do need to do the 360 video animation and do the model of my principal. Also I need to plan the things I need to do over the summer since I do plan on working on this project during my summer vacation. Crazy you say? I think so too, but I really want to make this project a success. During the summer I also plan on doing preparation for college as I am becoming a Senior! Another aspect in my life that I am currently doing is working and I want two jobs over the summer as it will benefit me with my future. With that I can buy things necessary to me and so that I can do some work on which ever class. The two most fun thing that connects with the gaming industry is more coding with something other than C# and maybe learning another language for the better good. Either way really I need to make sure I have everything in check for next year. Not only for AGAD, but for my future as well.
