Google Tilt Brush Competition 2019

Do you want to push your art skills to the limit by using them in 3D? Or maybe just want to spend some time drawing/playing/messing around in VR?

The Multimedia Virtual Reality and Interaction (VRI) Lab is hosting a competition for all undergraduate Multimedia students to use Google Tilt Brush to create 3D artworks in Virtual Reality. The competition will take place from 13 – 17 May everyday between 9:30 and 15:30, except Friday which will only run until 13:30, at the VRI lab (IT 4-62).

If you’ve never heard of Tilt Brush, check out the video below.

Rules:

  • You will have a maximum of 50 minutes to create your artwork. This includes the time needed to acquaint yourself with the tools as well as the actual drawing time.
  • Sign up for the competition by booking a slot here. Use your name, surname, and student number when making a booking.
  • Each person may only book 1 slot. We have capacity to host three people at a time.
  • You may share your slot with 1 other person (if, for example, both of you want to try it out but you don’t want to book a full slot each). In this case, only 1 person makes the booking on the Doodle and neither can make another booking later.
  • The department has the right to use your artwork for future marketing purposes.

The artworks will be judged by the Multimedia Department and the creator of the best artwork will receive R50 3D printing credit and their sculpture will be exhibited on the Multimedia blog.

FAQs

How do I enter?

Just book a slot on this link. Your booking is your competition entry.

What is 3D printing credit?

This credit can be used to make 3D prints using the system available to all multimedia students at www.mm.up.ac.za/vri

How can I prepare for the competition ahead of time?

Watch YouTube videos on Tilt Brush and try to learn the layout of the controls. Also look at existing Tilt Brush artworks (such as these) for inspiration.

Do I have to be good at drawing to do this?

No, although it would probably help you a bit. You just need to be creative. It’s a great experience and definitely worth trying out even if you don’t win.

Google Tilt Brush Competition

Are you willing to push your art skills to the limit by using them in 3D?

The Multimedia Virtual Reality and Interaction Lab is hosting a competition for all undergraduate Multimedia students to use Google Tilt Brush to create 3D artworks in Virtual Reality.

If you’ve never heard of Tilt Brush, check it out here.

The competition has two categories:

  • General: You can use any brushes and your sculptures can be any size. The winner will be the sculpture that is deemed most impressive and best-looking overall by the department. The winner of this category will receive R50 3D printing credit and their sculpture will be exhibited on the Multimedia blog.
  • 3D-printable: You can only use Tilt Brush’s Cartoon brush and the winner will be the sculpture that is deemed most impressive and best-looking while still being 3D-printable, as determined by the department. The winner of this category will receive a 3D printed version of their sculpture and their sculpture will be exhibited on the Multimedia blog.

Rules:

  • You have a maximum of 50 minutes to create your artwork. This includes the time needed to acquaint yourself with the tools as well as the actual drawing time.

Do I decide beforehand which category I am entering?

You don’t need to decide. When your artwork is judged it will be placed into a category.

Watch YouTube videos on Tilt Brush and try to learn the layout of the controls.

What makes an artwork 3D printable?

You need to use Tilt Brush’s Cartoon brush as this creates models with strokes that have enough width and depth to be printable. The artwork should also avoid overhangs, as these have to be printed with supports.

Do I have to be good at drawing to do this?

No, although it would probably help you a bit. You just need to be creative. It’s a great experience and definitely worth trying out even if you don’t win.
