Vancouver Technical Secondary School – Back to School Part 1 – Wood Work Shop with Denyc at TCCN.ca

Part one of TCCN.ca “Back to School” series on location at Vancouver Technical Secondary School in Vancouver, BC, Canada. Before entering a professional trade it all begins with education. Your Hostess Denyc takes you on location to meet Principal Dave Derpak and to the Wood Work Shop to speak with teacher Rory Brown, whom shares with you what the class has to offer with examples of their projects.

I tape the templates to poster board then cut with a hobby knife. I fold the poster board then use scotch tape to hold them together. The templates are not 100% perfect. So if you build this model, you might have to squish the columns a little or move the pieces a little to get it to look just right. These are my favorite illusions. From one angle everything looks perfectly normally until you see the balls rolling uphill. When you change the angle of the camera you see that the ramps are not as they appeared. They are actually slanting downhill instead of uphill. It’s all about the perspective of course. All of the work for the illusion is performed in a 3D program. The process to create these illusions is long and difficult. I basically create the design the way it should appear and then create a duplicate of the design that will be the actual physical copy. I manipulate the duplicate in the 3D program so that the ramps ultimately slant down but still match the original layer of the ramps that are aiming up. Once I’ve created the ramps that slant down, I flatten the shapes, print them out, cut, fold and tape. The camera must be set up in the same position that the camera in the 3D program was set to.
