ENT4410 Technical Direction Spring 2014

ENT4410 Technical Direction Spring 2014

An in depth analysis of the planning, budgeting and construction processes used in the production of scenery. Students will apply their knowledge of construction and drafting techniques and process to generate shop drawings, develop budget estimates and plan construction schedules.

Ins and Outs Of Physical Computing

Ins and Outs Of Physical Computing

An introduction to interactive technology with a focus on how we use technology to express ourselves and interact with our environment. This class will combine a hands-on exploration of sensors and microcontrollers with concepts of interaction design employing a structured design process. Students will work on creative group projects and provide on-line documentation of their work. An array of sensing technologies from simple switches to video tracking will be introduced. Students will use the simple programming of microcontrollers to process incoming data from sensors.

ENT 4499 Culmination Project (Monday)

ENT 4499 Culmination Project (Monday)

This course serves as the senior thesis project. The student will utilize his/her skills in a new and innovative way to develop a project that relates to or has an impact on the entertainment industry. Projects may be developed through courses in the entertainment technology and/or emerging media technology programs. All projects must be approved by the advisor and should demonstrate management, technical design and presentation skills. Documentation of planning, design and realization will be presented to a committee of instructors, both in entertainment technology and related disciplines, as well as to industry professionals; all are to be selected by the students and approved by the advisor. Though students will enroll in the course during their senior year, development of the project should begin during the second semester of the junior year.

My Projects

Hubble Telescope model

Hubble Telescope model

This is a scale model of a space Telescope launched on April 1990. Named the Hubble Telescope after Edwin Hubble who showed us that those delightful specs of light in the night sky were not just stars and constellations but light emanating from distant galaxies.Since its launch and after its problems with aberration were solved it became one of our primary sources for information about the universe and to this day it still shocks us with amazing images of the vast universe. In fact without the Hubble telescope humanity would be years behind in astronomy.we would probably still be oblivious to black holes, the expansion of the universe, and the age of the universe. it has now been orbiting this earth for over 20 years and will hopefully continue to do so for many more years.
