Creating Model of Crematory

This video shows whole process of creating model in Google Sketch Up. Time of video is 4 times shorter than original time of creating.

Model of Gate of Death

For now this model was the most to make. There are a lot of windows, doors and other elements which I was making step by step.

Analyse

1. Describe the inspiration for this project

            Inspiration of taking Auschwitz as my main topic project was visiting camp. Then human visit place like Auschwitz he could even imagine how it was to be in there when it was build or working.

Another reason was that when I lived in Warsaw, teenagers from my school didn’t respect people who died in this camp. There are a lot of jokes about Auschwitz and Jews. This made me think about how schools teach about those horrible activities. Teenagers don’t know how it is important to remember those things and why they should make fun of them.

            Next reason is that camp is almost completely destroyed. People from the entire world would like to see camp when it was complete. So I will create virtual model from which I will use to make short animation with small amount of information to make it more documental. I would like to put it on You Tube, on Auschwitz Museum website if they would be interested. This animation and model would be good source of information for school to show for students Auschwitz II.

2. Analyse your research and show how it has helped your create your product

            Photos from Auschwitz II taken by Nazis photographers were really helpful with creating models of barracks and other building. Some of them are destroyed so to rebuild them I needed those photos. For example gas chambers. To create whole camp, very helpful was blueprint of Auschwitz II where I made my measurements.

3. Describe how your research helped you come up with new ideas AND what your research taught you about your focus area of interaction

            From book “Dlaczego należy uczyć o Holokauście" I read that even Chinese are interested in the Holocaust, and there are often visits from China to Auschwitz II. Reason why other nations placed far away from Poland are interested in learning about the Holocaust is that this genocide had one main target, to exterminate all Jews. This genocide is the only one which has so brutal and took so many human lives.
