Computer Science 3710 Project
by Tom Lister

Celebrating Alberta's Centennial Anniversary is the focus of the this project.
Considering this, I decided to make a grain elevator to represent a bit of the history of the province of Alberta.

 

I used 3D Studio Max 7 to complete this project.

Below is a thumbnail of the completed photograph.

This was an interesting project to do as it was my first attempt at creating graphics in a three dimensional environment.
What I found in creating this photograph is that some of the parts that seem trivial by just looking at a picture are, in reality, not so trivial to create.

The whole photograph was created in 3D Studio Max with the exception of the Alberta Wheat Pool logo which I created this logo in Adobe Photoshop.
Once I came up with a final rendering of the photograph in 3D Studio Max, I moved it over to Photoshop to apply the logo to the face of the elevator.
