ProCodeCG codeMeetUp() 26 Oct 2015 – Kampoong Monster Open Workshop: Non-Photorealistic Rendering

Last Monday, we had Aditia A. Pratama, Technical Director of Kampoong Monster Studios taught us about Non-Photorealistic  Rendering (NPR) 🙂

This is the example of a NPR. NPR is inspired by artistic styles such as painting, drawing, technical illustration and animated cartoons. This is a contrast to traditional computer graphics, which focused on photorealism.

This is the audience. Enthusiast audience! 🙂

And we started the workshop!

And these are the process of creating non-photorealistic render from creating a uv-sphere, adjusting camera, adding source of lights, and rendering

And this is the result! Looks really cool isn’t it? 🙂

We added some borderlines on this one.

And dash lines too.

And here we are, the happiest, the luckiest and the most talented people on earth that day! 😀

See you next Monday for an interesting regular codeMeetUp() topic and Monday after the next for another Blender workshop! 🙂

ProCodeCG Kids Programming Class 24 Oct 2015 – Finishing Bubble Blaster

Yesterday we worked on finishing our Bubble Blaster game in Python 🙂

We added some important functions to make it work, and adding time limit and score.

And this is the expression of our little coders in work 🙂

This is Ardi trying to debug his code because the bubble won’t pop op! 😀

Faris is working on displaying time and score.

Gaga is figuring out what went wrong with his code because the bubble won’t come up

Cinta and Capt. Anya are discussing on how to modify the game

Azriel starts to modify the Bubble Blaster to be an Agar.io 😉

We still haven’t decide what to do next week because we’re going to have a programming event, so probably we won’t have any class next week. But, well see 🙂

ProCodeCG codeMeetUp() 19 Oct 2015 – Simulakrum: “Our Lessons Learned from Motion Picture”

We were very lucky yesterday to have a great and talented filmmaker, Shendi Abdi M from Simulakrum Media Works share about lessons learned from Motion Picture.

Simulakrum is a visual communication design studio. Its products focused on audio-visual and multimedia contents, including film, video, motion graphics, visual effects and interactive media.

Simulakrum definition is a copy, imitation or representation of life reality perceived by people. People then make assumptions that the copy, imitation and representation is the true life reality. This definition is being used so that Simulakrum Studio products as the copy, imitation and imitation of life reality can be accepted and trusted by the people and will give the expected impacts.

The talk was very inspiring because every word and meaning was clearly defined. There were also examples for each definition.

There were lots of new insights and knowledge about film/motion picture/ movie most people haven’t heard before.

The topic covers many details about filmmaking. With some of movie scenes for examples.

We bet lots of people want to know all these interesting stuffs about movies.

And we also bet that not many people notice that we have lots of talented people and company in filmmaking!

Simulakrum is one of those talented and qualified company on its field. It knows what to do.

It knows what makes a film good or bad.

This presentation shows how people with passion work. It shows hard work and dedication.

ProCodeCG Kids Programming Class 17 Oct 2015 – Continuing Games Development in Python

Hello! Today we picked up where we left last week: continuing our GUI games with tkinter in Python!

Some kids missed the class last week so they have to catch up and type lots and lots lines of codes!

Some kids are faster and eager to make the code work so we have to set up several screens displaying different lines of code 😀

This kids always impress us with the passion and curiosity. They examine every line when there are some errors. They will go home in a bad mood if they cannot figure it out 😀

Sometimes, double assistance is needed to find out what goes wrong.

All in all, we had a great day! Just like every other Saturdays! 🙂 Next week we will modify this game to be the famous agar.io game 😀

ProCodeCG codeMeetUp() 12 Oct 2015 – Animation Open Workshop – Material Exploration

Yeahhh, on our codeMeetUp() yesterday, Bintang Senja from Kampoong Monster taught us how about material exploration.

We started with 3D production pipeline: pre-production, production and post-production.

What we learned was on production stage: rendering.

These are the audience 🙂

Yes, we the workshop was about how to “create” this things.

But of course, to reduce the complexity, we started with balls (and NOT the one in the middle, because it took quite lots of efforts to create 😀 )

Here’s some of the screenshot of what we did yesterday 😉

We set up the environment for the objects.

And then put 4 object on the plane we created before.

Set up the camera.

Start giving effects to the first ball.

To get this awesome glowing ball of blue lights! 🙂

And we applied effects and render the second ball to be a shiny glass ball.

And the third: a metal ball.

And the last: a marble ball. How cool is that!

And this is the happy and proud us!

See you next week for the regular sharing session and 2 more weeks for the regular open workshop on animation! 🙂

ProCodeCG Kids Programming Class 10 Oct 2015 – Creating Games with Python

Today, we learned to create a game with Python. We did it with GameMaker, and it was very quick and straightforward. Today we rewrited it in Python and learned lots of things!

We created a game where a player can control a submarine to pop bubbles.

We created a window, put a submarine on it and made functions to control it.

We also created some random functions to create the bubbles, with different position, different size and different time.

We also had to define functions to keep the bubbles in a list, and create a function to delete them from the window when they pops (and delete them from the list as well, of course).

So that we also had to create functions to detect the submarine and bubbles positions, and define a collision.

The player will get the score when the submarine hit a bubble. We typed lots of line of codes instead of just clicking and type a bit with GameMaker, but today we learned a lot about logics, sequences and math functions!

Yaaaay, our first game in Python! 😉

ProCodeCG Kids are flexible and fast-learners programmers. We might learn different things every week, but we have a strong core in logics and algorithm 😉

ProCodeCG codeMeetUp() 5 Oct 2015 – A Cup of Friendly Tips: Psychology with a Touch of Technology

Wow, we had a topic on psychology for the first time on our codeMeetUp() today! 😉

Fani Apriani from 123 Education shared about Psychology with a Touch of Technology 🙂

123 education is an organization that concerns about kids and parents (parenting). The organization has 3Dragons, an animation education and community for kids, and A Cup of Friendly Tips, a psychology activity for parenting based on technology.

In a stressful like this, where the pressure and burden of life is getting higher, there are so many psychological problems occur.

And finding the solutions for those problems is not easy.

A Cup of Friendly Tips is designed to provide solutions, with the touch of technology.

The solutions cover the biggest issues in community.

One of the example is corruption.

The solutions being offered for corruption is to find the motives and eliminate them.

The most adorable thing is that the speaker practice a very good parenting example during (and even before and after!) the presentation. She brought this little cute kid who was really brilliant creating and experimenting with shapes on PowerPoint!

We also had lots of inter-discipline discussions.

And this is us! Different crowd, but sharing the same spirit and happiness each time! Thanks for coming!

Next week Kampoong Monster will be back with animation workshop again! 😉

ProCodeCG Kids Programming Class 3 Oct 2015 – Encryption Virus

 

We seriously created an encryption virus today 😉 But before that we learned about file i/o. About how to read from a file (per character, per line, or multiple lines).

Then we learned how to write to a file. And how to read from a file, encrypt it then write it to a new file.

 

 

 

Next we learned how to read from a file, encrypt each character, write it to a buffer and write it to the same file.

 

 

 

 

 

After that we modify the last virus to list files to be infected, checking which ones already have virus signature, and then encrypt each character in the file! 😀

Some of the kids refused to run the virus because the anti-virus hasn’t been written yet! LOL 😀

But after they were assisted to create back ups, all kids now has the virus healthy and works find. infecting all .py files in the directory encrypted. With now white spaces! 😀

This is how the virus looks like

And this is how the files got infected 😀

Next week we will learn to create the anti! 😉
