The Rule of Thirds I think this camera technique is considered important because it can drastically improve the quality of any image to make it go from bland to interesting. You could use this technique when taking pictures for articles, fundraisers, or just for personal pleasure.  Fill the Frame I think this technique is important to remember as many times pictures would be perfect, but people tend to take photos from too far of a distance. I would like to know more about how to take pictures up close more efficiently, as I often find my pictures turn out a bit fuzzy and out of focus.  Framing  Framing is an important technique as similar to the rule of thirds, it can take the quality and content of your photo up another notch. If you have interesting things happening in the background of your pictures, people will be a lot more likely to pay attention to them.  Point of View Point of view is a very important technique as it can completely chang...

Freeze Machine*         I decided to use a van/SUV type of body style to base my design off of, I got the idea of designing a little ice cream truck then went from there. Some features that I would want included in the final design that I may not have been able to include in this basic first phase design are just little things like doors on the sides and in the back, a sliding door that opens up the side window, and added details on things like the ice cream cone on the top. I will name my car the Freeze Machine* and I think perhaps an ice cream company paired with any car manufacturer would be best suited to introduce my car into the industry. Any type of driver that sells ice cream would most likely find my car appealing as it would attract attention to their company. I would place this assignment at a 6/10 for difficulty as it took a bit of time to get used to Tinkercad's controls and to come up with a creative idea for the design.  

Yes, I think 3-D printing can help car designers as cars can be manufactured much faster with less back breaking work. I think cars were sooner or later going to become manufactured this way as the technology we have nowadays is capable of doing crazy things like printing car parts. If I had a 3-D printer, I think I would print out furniture for my room. If I were to design a car I think I would use a SUV or Sedan body style, because I enjoy driving in SUV's and I think I would have a lot of creative freedom using a Sedan body type as my base. 

Automobile Body Styles Truck https://pixabay.com/en/truck-farm-chevy-agriculture-2746716/ Trucks were designed with a flat, open bed for hauling a variety of desired cargo.

Depending on the type of van, it can be larger or smaller than the average car, SUV, or truck.

Careers in the Automotive Industry. Don't Overlook Automotive Technology as a High-Tech Career Path.  Some of the high-tech systems on automobiles today that were unheard of 30 years ago are stability and traction control systems, adaptive cruise control, and variable valve timing. Y oung people should have skills in  math, science, communications and technical skills to have  a career as an automotive technician. S ome advantages in obtaining an education as an automotive technicians versus other high-tech educational options are  automotive technology careers can begin after just two years of education causing less college debt.  The automotive technician field is   expected to add 237,500 new jobs with a growth rate of 30 percent up to 2020. While more and more jobs are getting moved overseas like accounting services, customer call-center work, and computer programming, automotive technicians are fairly 'immune' to this. Some o ther positi...
