Sweet Charity evaluation
Sweet Charity Evaluation
In class we were assigned to write up a short evaluation on what one of the female characters in the film Sweet Charity, had done wrong in her interview situation, as well as what she did right. So we open on a scene where the job prospectee is walking into a building trying to get out of the Taxi Dance buisness. Now before she went in she already had her first problem. Which was the way she was dressed, the office she went to was a very drab setting so when she came into the interview wearing bright clothing and scarfs that were not traditional to the environment that was a big nono. What she should've done was evaluate the office beforehand and see what they wore.
She then went into the interview not even knowing the position she was applying for or what they had to offer. This would be another thing to research when you are applying for a new job. The next item up for bid was that she has zero experience but is expecting a job. She also durign the interview replied no to each question before the interviewer even got them out. This could appear standoffish. She should have replied I do not have experience but I am willing to learn. Is there a course by chance you can offer. Lastly at the end she started buersting into tears and begging for a job. THis is unbecoming and cause the interviewer to think it was a joke.
She, to be honest did not do much right except shoe up to the interview motivated to start. That is where it all starts is getting up and doing. Which is a lesson that all of us can afford to learn. Nothing will happen without the will to make it happen. This concludes my short evaluation.

New texturing program for 3D modelers.

Quixel Suites
Quixel Suites is a relatively new program for modeling and texturing, Frankly it is not very well known but is a great program for its price. It runs about 150 dollars for the indie pack that allows a commercial use up to 10,000 dollars a year. As a matter of fact the program was actually only announced last year around October. This is a very relative article to the class because in our field anything that can make you more productive makes you more of an asset. The article is very simple describing what the programs plans are and what they will have to offer eventually. I actually purchased it myself and have to say for the buck you pay the bang is evident.
The article also shows and discusses something I myself am fairly excited for. That is the Megasscans section that they are working on for the program. The Megascans is to be a library of premade textures that are royalty free, The will be editable using normal maps and all of the other features that the program offers.
I would recommend this program to anyone, like any program though there is a learning curve it is not really easy to master and the process can get confusing for first time users. However to anyone in the field I would recommend checking it out at least doing the trial version of it and give it a good old fashion test run. Remember the field is competitive and anything that gives you an edge over the competition is a necessity
