ACCD Car Classic 10.21.2012

 
The 1966 Ford GT 40 was one of my favorites at the car show.

ACCD Fall 2012

Design Process 2.
 
 We where asked to redesign the 1934 Bugatti Type 57 SC Atlantic.
 
My inspiration for the shapes and forms was a dragonfly concept building for NYC.
 




 
 
This was my final presentation board while I was working on it in Photoshop.
I lost all of this visual information because my PC did not have enough memory and I had not defragmented the hard drive in many months. This will not happen to me again. I still showed up to my final presentation with the materials I had on hand and kept forging ahead.
I passed the course and that is all that matters.
 
 
 
 
D3 Fundamentals 2- Transportation:
 
This was my key sketch for my racer, I sketched it in one of my other course's notebooks and tore it out for our week 4 presentation. It is very rough and lacking in sketch craftsmanship, but when my instructor saw it, he liked the gesture and the packaging position of the driver.

The concept for this car design was Formula One with Cargo.
 







 
 
 
 
Digital design 1
 
 
This is a Movie Poster assignment.
 
 

Here I had to design a home web page for myself.
 
The thumbnail images are from work I did at Pasadena City College, Art Center at Night, and Art Center College of Design. I placed half of these projects in my admissions portfolio to the Art Center day program.

Way Things Work Course Projects
 
This was a test project that faculty wanted to try for the Spring semester. All Industrial Design first term students had to design a pine wood derby racer. The inspiration for my racer was a Flying Squirrel.
 



The side pods/skirts were attached with velcro.






Me on race day.

I had to remove the side pods during the race because I thought they where rubbing on the lane deviders. I did not win, but I was happy that my racer ran a respectable race. Later that day, I studied my racer closely and found out that  one of the front wheels was rubbing on the wood part of the chassis. I did not glue the top body to the pine wood chassis in perfect alignment.
The faculty decided that this was the only semester that students would have a derby race.
