Hello all! My name is Brandon, and I’m a student based in Washington State (PDT) taking Ecampus courses at OSU. I actually started out on campus in Corvallis for my first two years of classes but transitioned to Ecampus due to the flexibility it afforded in running my business.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I run a 3D printing business full-time outside of school. This mainly involves designing 3D models and creating CG renders on the promotional end. Blender is my main 3D software of choice, but I also use Nomad Sculpt on my iPad and Fusion 360 for CAD projects. I am also learning OpenGL for code-based 3D projects! Below is an example of some of my work:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Outside of school and work, I enjoy doing anything outside with my friends! This summer, I went on a good number of backpacking trips and got really into mountain biking. Below are some photos of the highlights:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This term, I am taking CS 461, the first in the Senior Design Project series. I am most interested in projects involving 3D game development because I have been wanting to learn a program like Unreal Engine or Unity for quite some time and game development is the avenue within my major that aligns most with my interests. The project I am most excited about is Let’s Launch a Game<\/a> because I am a fan of sidescrollers and working with this team would provide a unique opportunity in real-world indie game development. The Escape Room Challenge<\/a> would offer the opportunity to build interactive 3D environments within a game engine and is likely the project that I am most qualified for. I am also interested in the AR Arcade Classics<\/a> project after talking with Hannalore, a fellow dev, about utilizing VR Headsets and building this project in Unity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I am also taking CS 450 Intro to Computer Graphics this term, along with my business minor-related coursework. I am excited for all the learning to come!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
