So after writing my art exam today, there was a question about how the brain hemispheres work. Easy enough question
Left Brain controls right side of the body, and is logical, anlyctical/, looks at parts(…rational?)
Right Brain controls the left side and is random,intuitive, looks at wholes (creativE)
(More detailed info here
But I started thinking where does 3D modelling/animation come in? You have to be creative to model an intesresting character (right brain) but you have to think logical when solving triangles (left brain). So I guess it could fall into the “whole-brained” way of thinking.
I took the quiz and got a 50 50, but im not an expert at 3d modelling, only been at it for a couple months so…
What do you think?
It is not an either/or question, and each of us shifts across fluidly throughout the moments of our life as need directs our attention, often using both capacities at once seamlessly. Yes, some of us are more dominant in one side or the other, but never exclusively or we couldn’t function. Those who dance easily across the divide, often do well in our field as it requires elements of creative synthesis thinking, along with getting all of the pieces lined up correctly.
