What if Metropolis Thumbnails 08: Building Design Progression 2: Sharp Buildings

Batch two for my building designs, this one was a bit more difficult to construct, because I had to design the sharper, more rough buildings different to my curved ones, while also keeping a consistent style flowing in both structures, and I think I managed to accomplish this, although I am still not as confident in these buildings as I am in the curved ones. I took inspiration from Japanese and Chinese temples for their sharp, tall structure and their use of angels and symmetry, while comparing that to modern architecture and seeing what I like and how I will apply it to my structures. I would still like to experiment with colour on the designs however, as there one note colour pallet is making them appear a bit bland, so I think I explore that after my final redesign for my Hero prop.

Sound Experiment 04

 Today I decided to record some more natural sounds, this time seeing how the sound of wind would sound through a window before I recorded it outside, as I think the slight whistling noise through the window would make it sound more interesting, I am planning on collecting more natural sounds, but I wanted to see how it would sound before I progressed onwards in case the background noise was too much in comparison to the wind and ruined it.  For the second sound for my second image, I wanted to continue to find something more sharper so I tried to record the sound of cactus spikes, particularly if I ran my fingers through it, as it makes a very sharp, high pitched sound that I think could work better, especially if I could replicate the sound to reflect the more smaller portions of the image.  Lastly I wanted to try and collect a more electronic sound for image one, to match its sharp, electric colours so I wanted to start by recording a microwave, as I thought is humming noi
