3D modelling video description.

This video shows a 3D modelling exercise being undertaken in a typical class. The video is 2 minutes and 38 seconds long.

Students are sitting around tables in groups of four or five. There is general background noise of students speaking to one another. A teacher is shown handing out a base map to each group of students. The base map is a plan of an example site.

A group of students are shown placing wooden blocks, representing buildings, on to the base map.

A second group of students are shown placing wooden blocks on to the base map.

A teacher is working with one particular group of students. He points at the map and says: "You can see where the car park and the church is." The teacher moves towards two photographs of streets from the site, which are being projected on to the classroom white board. He points at one of the photographs and says: "That is the intersection and that is looking down that particular road."

A group of students are shown using the wooden blocks to construct groups of buildings on their base maps.

A different group of students are discussing the features marked on their base map with a teacher. They agree that they can demolish a disused factory if necessary when creating their new design.

A teacher is shown working with another group of students. The teacher points at a street marked on the far left of the map and another street marked on the far right of the map. They discuss what features they can design to link the two areas together.

Two groups of students are shown marking road connections on their base maps and placing wooden blocks alongside the streets to indicate where they would build houses.

A teacher ends the session by thanking the students for their completed designs and saying that the designs have been reviewed. The winning design can be seen on a table surrounded by the group who have created it. The class applaud the winning group of students.

End.
