Practice: ModFac Hunting

Overview

Let's practice identifying modeling factors!

Materials Needed

  • The worksheets below

  • Either a printer and colored pencils

  • Or your favorite image editing application such as Photoshop

Steps

  1. Decide whether you'll do this assignment digitally or traditionally.
    If you do it traditionally, you'll draw on the printout.

  2. Identify and label all modeling factors by drawing an outline for each of them and coloring in the area. For "Ambient Light Intensity", estimate a percentage. 0% is no ambient light at all, 100% is extreme ambient light Intensity.

  3. Upload your labeled image. 

Duration

This project should take 30–60 minutes to complete. Start with the sphere and if you want to challenge yourself, do the monkey afterward.

Example
