Assignment: Model (draw, render, animate, simulate, ...) a possible final project, and post it on your class page with original 2D and 3D files.
I first did a simple manual draw of my project, both 2D and 3D.Then I tried GIMP and Inkscape (2D softwares), and quickly I decided to use Inkscape.I did not encounter major issues using Inkscape, I just had to take care of the dimensions settings, at starting.

I used Rhino3D as 3D softwareAs a template for my 3D, I imported the 2D file (using .dxf format as pivot between Inkscape and Rhino).In Rhino, I did not encounter major issues, but I spent a lot of time to understand the way of using the different commands (there is so much).

I did a video of my 3D design using QuicktimeI convert the video from .mov to .mp4, using the command tool ffmpeg (command: ffmpeg -i 3D-design-video.mov 3D-design-video.mp4)I uploaded it on Toutube, then I shared it and integrated it in my website.
