PHOTOGRAPHIE ET LUMIERE 03.

The first set of pictures was done during the Interior Architecture Design class in Rome. The aim of the course was to create an environment by playing with lights.

The second set of pictures was taken on Reunion Island during a photography class. The professor indicate a specific path to walk in, in the city center and to take pictures of scenes or objects that intrigued us. I decided to create characters with the garbage on the road.

SURVEY 04.

As part of a course undertaken in Rome Sapienza, I embarked on a journey to survey the renowned San Giovanni di Laterano church. The focus of the course centered on the photogrammetry. I used my smartphone, I diligently captured over 5000 images of the church's facade, which were subsequently processed using Metashape software. I transformed these imagesintopointcloud,followed by the generation of a mesh model and an orthoimage. then i uploaded into Recap Pro for further analysis and refinement. Then i finished with AutoCAD by drawing the Facade view.
