SolidWorks Dorm Room Model&Rendering

So at the beginning of this past school semester my roommate and I weren’t sure how we wanted to arrange our dorm room. Instead of taking hours of moving furniture and belongings, I decided to model our dorm room and furniture in 3D modeling software.

I am studying Mechanical Engineering at my university and have access to SolidWorks software there. I was able to use this software to model our room and then re-arrange our room many times in virtual space all from the luxury of our couch. We looked at multiple options for our room and finally found an arrangement we liked.

For fun, I decided to use PhotoView 360 to render out a walk-through of the dorm room so we could have a better idea of what it would look like. The video is a little ‘jumpy’ because it is a little difficult to do a SolidWorks walk through using arrow keys and such.

I rendered every frame with PhotoView 360, but compiled the frames into a single video file using Adobe Premiere.

 

I’m gonna try and be a tad better about posting the stuff I do on here. Things may be a tad different than they used to tho. I do a lot of work while at college, but a lot of it is more 3D modeling and such. There may be more short, quickly written posts but hopefully a lot more. Also they may just be screenshots or renderings of 3D models I am working on. I’d like to keep this website more active, but some of the ‘production value’ may decrease due to time. (yes, I realize my production value is not amazing, but hey, I try….sometimes)
