REFERENCE TUTORIAL

better version:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xtjFRxtdYck

research tutorial:

I haven’t use outclass research link to do my tutorial video. But I have looked through a lot, then I decided to make a tutorial video that demonstrate how to export model from sketch up to sandbox and using flow graph to make entity act as we expect to. Its basic tutorial for people who doesn’t know flow graph and don’t know how to export model from software to other software.
This tutorial video is divided into 4 steps: play up installing and using, creating new environment in sandbox, adding entity to sandbox and using flow graph. The play up plug-in tool is important when we try to export model to sandbox,  and  also the path.
(to be continue, by the way, hope you enjoy the tutorial)

EX2-FINAL SUBMISSION

BRIEF:
In this video I had three themes: moving entity, rotating entity, glowing entity. All of them connect with analysis engine. Light intensity from pachube feed is express through glowing entity, the flowgraph allow us to get the data for analysing.
moving entity is a way to show how space changes when the light changes position and people goes through.The higher intensity of the light, the larger space people will fill in.Low light intensity in the night without natural lights will make the space around light invisible.
rotating entity creates odd shape of the shadow also divide the light in odd shape, which makes the space have inconstant shapes.
By analysing the moving entity's average velocity, the data will be collected and visible for viewer to see.

DEMONSTRATION2:

EX2-WEEK3-INDEPENDET STUDY

1:visualizing of bible
the visualizetion depiets all 1189 chapters of the bible as a bar graph along the bottom of the illustration, the length of each bar are proportional to the number of verses in the chapter.

 2:a visual history of united states senate
this graph is telling us the information of united state senators in the history and using different colour to represent different party and it is easy to tell when the different parties has greater power in the policy。

3:race to the moon 
This detail map explains the story of this constest in a clear and informative manner.
demonstration of my analytics engine




EX2-WEEK3-tutorial

for conclusion, my discussion with Fei Feng Yan, my ex2 will focus on the relationship between space and light, I'll express the feed by using opening space with lights which the space between lights and people is shorter, the intensity of the luminous of the light is higher, which is that through a inverse way to express my understand of the feed.

EX2-WEEK2-INDEPENDENT STUDY

RESEARCH LINK:
1:http://www.moddb.com/groups/cryengine-2-developers/tutorials/cryengine-flowgraph-tutorial
a very detail introduction about flow graph and how to use some simple methods.

Analysis engine brief:
The feed that I have found is about the relationship between space and light which the lit floor is depending
on amount of people. And the analysing by the flow graph shows how distance changes when the character moves around the map, it also connect to the space,the space can be changed by the moving restrictive walls or the intensity of the light.
