Google Hosts Campus 3D Rendering Competition
Google announced a competition among United States college students for the best rendering of their campus in 3D. The "Build Your Campus in 3D" contest calls for students to model their school's campus buildings in Google SketchUp and then tag them in Google Earth. Winners get a visit to Google, all expenses paid (Yippee!).
Google said all campus buildings should be modeled in Google SketchUp using photo-texturing and with a low-polygon count. Students can enter the contest individually or in teams, but Google recommends entrants have a faculty advisor. Entries should be submitted to the competition website by June 1, and the winning entries will be posed to the 3D Warehouse by July 10.
Judges for the contest include design luminaries Bobby Brooks from Walt Disney Engineering; Ken Harsha from Electronic Arts; Janet Martin from Communication Arts Inc.; Paul Seletsky from Skidmore, Owings & Merrill; Gary Smith from Green Mountain Geographics; and Ken M Tse from HKS Architects.
