Looking into Rhino 3D, I have found that this software can be very useful for my work. Since objects can be made within this software, I can utilise this for 3D printing and creating 3D fashion products like Accessories. Difficult shapes that can only be made in software can be 3D printed. I am using 3D printing in my work this term. Rhino has definatly inspired me.]]> 2022-02-24 20:52:41 UTC https://padlet.com/mparrett5/duf6moodd8e0j7gv/wish/2065315363 Unreal Engine mparrett5 https://padlet.com/mparrett5/duf6moodd8e0j7gv/wish/2065322443 https://www.evercast.us/blog/unity-vs-unreal-engine

Unreal Engine is for the making of virtural gaming environement, layouts and settings. I have never used Unreal Engine before or heard of it. It was all new to me. I am fasinated by its potential and I can definatly use this within my work. Creating environments for catwalks, explored worlds dedicated to fashion design or even create a virtual fashion store.]]> 2022-02-24 20:58:55 UTC https://padlet.com/mparrett5/duf6moodd8e0j7gv/wish/2065322443 WSGN mparrett5 https://padlet.com/mparrett5/duf6moodd8e0j7gv/wish/2065351192 https://www.wgsn.com/en/wgsn

I have used WGSN before. It is very useful for when I am looking at current and past trends. I mainly use WGSN for colour palettes, CAD inspiration and CLO 3D designs and garment patterns. 

WGSN has shown me that there is so much in the making in the fashion world especially in the virtual world. WGSN has many assets that can be utilised for my work. So much so, that I have had good practise at creating my own CAD's. This website is a very resourceful tool that I can use in the future.]]> 2022-02-24 21:27:18 UTC https://padlet.com/mparrett5/duf6moodd8e0j7gv/wish/2065351192 Mintel mparrett5 https://padlet.com/mparrett5/duf6moodd8e0j7gv/wish/2065560098 https://www.mintel.com

Mintel is interesting because at first I had no idea what this was about. I realised that they're a researcha and deveopment company that provides clients with customer research. They are a marketing intelligence agency that lends itself on analysing the market and competition. 

Since I now know who they are and what they are about, I can say that I may work with them in the future because I plan on creating my own company and would very much like to have some market research about what my customers want out of the products they are purchasing. This is also crucial because the information that can be gathered may push new trends in the fashion industry which then influences other consumeristic behaviours.]]> 2022-02-25 01:09:53 UTC https://padlet.com/mparrett5/duf6moodd8e0j7gv/wish/2065560098
