Back to slide index.

Hi!

First, don't forget to confirm your attendance using the Seats Mobile app!

Second, I'm going to start every lecture with a meditation from the fantastic Sitting Still Like a Frog book, all read by Myla Kabat-Zinn. If you don't want to participate that's completely fine.

Let's start by trying out Polycam. Please download the app for your iPhone. Please DM me on Slack for my login - kindly gifted to us by the CEO of Polycam, Elliott Spelman. Remember that we want to be be able to export USDZ files at the end of this, let's take a look at this article: "What File Types Can Polycam Export?". Let's work through this article together: "Creating Photogrammetry Captures in Object Mode".

Let's continue by going through the (in)famous Donut (sic) tutorial for learning Blender from Blender Guru aka Andrew Price. The full playlist is over 5 hours long, but you can watch that outside of class if you'd like to. Does anyone know how to use Blender already?

Now let's continue by taking our USDZ files from Polycam or Blender (or both) into Reality Composer Pro, and adding an Anchoring Component to them, before trying them on device! What kind of anchors are selectable in Reality Composer Pro?

What questions do you have for me?

See you next Friday, please review all of the content from today's lecture before then, as well as completing the following pages from the App Design Workbook:

1. Page 30 of the App Design Workbook: "Find Differentiators"
2. Page 36 of the App Design Workbook: "Define Features"
3. Page 42 of the App Design Workbook: "Prioritize (sic) Features"
4. Page 43 of the App Design Workbook: "Describe Key Functions"
5. Page 45 of the App Design Workbook: "Define an MVP" - remember what an MVP is?

Thanks!
