That's when the idea started that we should use the real-world video and place the 3D model into it.Īfter doing some research and calling different graphic resources, one video company said it would be possible, so we started collaborating with them for the final collaged video. How did you get the idea to put a static model into the video? How did that innovation change the way you will problem solve in the future?Īfter graphically modeling the whole site and highway view corridor, we realized a rendering program couldn't provide the look we were hoping for unless we spent several hours on modeling the site. The videos played one after the other and included side-by-side still shot comparisons which were successful. We found a talented video company to help us achieve the exhibit we were hoping for. The best option we decided to try was to insert the static model into the real-world video.
SKETCHUP ARCHITECTURE TRIAL
After some trial and error with SketchUp’s basic video capabilities, we felt the graphics could be pushed and started researching other rendering options. Then, our client filmed a real-world video traveling down the highway and initially thought we could track the same time and speed and show the two videos side by side. We were already modeling the building in SketchUp to demonstrate massing, materials, and heights so it was natural that we continued with SketchUp to build the highway, surrounding buildings, and to run visual test drives down the highway for internal team confirmation.
They wanted to ensure specific views from a highway would not be obstructed.
It started with the approval authority questioning the location of the designed building. Speaking of solving problems, tell us a little about how you proved the proposed Woodward building wouldn’t obstruct the distant mountain ridge views while entering the lovely town of Park City? Another cool fact is that the Woodward training floor designers use SketchUp to create their amazing ramps, tramps, and foam pit spaces! This new facility will offer all-in-one, year-round training for a wide-range of outdoor sports including skateboarding, BMX, mountain biking, scooter, cheerleading, parkour, digital media, climbing, snowboarding and skiing. In addition, it will have two levels of seating overlooking the training floors, providing parents and friends great views of the exciting action below. Woodward Park City will feature world-class facilities and exceptional instruction. The unique architecture of this building is that three main training floors will be visually connected, allowing the kids to see what others are doing to enhance their skills and confidence.
Their safe approach to skill development allows kids to advance through progression and air awareness, starting indoors on the tumble floor, tramps, and foam pits and then taking those skills and techniques outdoors, and to their terrain parks. Woodward's progression-based facilities help kids to learn new outdoor sports skills and achieve their goals in a dedicated learning environment. Can you give us more background on this project?
The proposed Woodward building is made for the adventurous. Most of my colleagues and friends enjoy playing in the outdoors and adventuring out together to ski or climb. I think it's partly to do with naturally gravitating towards people who share these interests. I do feel fortunate in where I am and what I do. That’s exciting! How’d you get involved in architecture for the outdoor industry? You’ve got the lucky job of working within your personal interests.
