Digital Presentation InDesign By: Xiaojin (Georgia) Huang
The mobile phone task was the first approach to use Rhino. This task overall requires the understanding of multiple commands and functions on keyboard and cursor.

This phone was deisgned, using few of my favourite colours. and its backside is of a shinny metalic surface accompanied with golden metalic buttons. The exterior design of this cell phone was inspired by the commonly used Iphone 6 cell phone. The differences are its screen size, colour, thickness and control buttons.

In Rhino software program “make 2D” was taught to present 3D models designed in the software in to 2D formats. This presentation technique illustrates the elevations, plan and perspective view of the design in an quick and easy way. The setting of this 2D command is of technical line form to further highlight the shape and structure of the design .

Using Rhino to make 3D models was a challenge at the beginning. For it included various commands that were difficult to understand. After a period of exploration in this program, the command and its functions became useful tool to recreate the Kiosk Kere Kere in the Melbourne University Campus. The common commands used were extrude, stretch, move, Planar Surface and the shape commands.

AUTO CAD was introduced to assist students in elevation, section and plan drawings. This program runs akin to Rhino, however, it differs for it merely focuses on assisting with 2D drawing. The most common tool used for this task was poly-line, move, Hatch etc. The highlight for using this software was that it was capable of having a drawing panel and a layout printing panel which was useful for producing PDF presentations in a multi-task form.

Photoshop is a software designed to edit photos in a professional way. After using Photoshop for a period of time, it has been a useful tool for a design student like me, you can basically do anything with Photoshop. However, such program in my eyes are still suitable for recreating or altering images rather than writing word documents and creating line drawings. The Magic wand tool is one of my favourite tool to use to cut and delete sections of images that are unwanted. In this task pattern tool was consistently used to recreate patterns on Kiosk Kere Kere shop. The drop-shadows applied made the image more 3D and realistic. This software is useful for generating high quality presentation and imagery .
