Language change and more

Big news, well first of all I am changing the blog to English as Swedish is a bit limiting, second of all I am more or less caught up with things and so I plan om making weekly updates now, I do realize it has been, lets call it sporadic.

So moving on, and showing of some of the things that have gotten done in school during the later half of the fall up to Christmas.

There have been a bit of technical drawing, not much fun if you ask me. Fun to post anyway, it is kind of fun to do. Maybe if I find one that looks cool I will post that to.

The big thing before Christmas was a thing called "the Christmas card", basically we made a short film with Santa coming into his house/workshop and then rushes of in a sleigh. We would build everything from scratch, the whole set and all the toys etc. We also built a sleigh. I was responsible for making one of the toys, a doll made from wood.

Doll made from wood and painted with acrylic paints.

The sleigh, how ever, was made as a collaboration. Everyone in the group, there where six of us, made a drawing of a sleigh. Then we shifted them around and you got to make a technical drawing of a sleigh you had not designed. After that we changed projects again for the building of a scale model from a technical drawing made by someone else. My design was not the one chosen in the end though but I still learned a lot and had fun doing it.

A bunch of this and that happened of cause but I wanted to focus on things that got built. Since that is why I am here in the north of Sweden at the university.

And finaly here is a link to one of 4 versions of our Chistmas card shot film:
