Methods and systems for digital content creation

A system for digital content creation comprising:

• a mobile computing device comprising
• a processor operably coupled to transitory memory, wherein the processor is operable to obtain computer-readable instructions from a non-transitory data store of the mobile computing device or from a non-transitory data store accessible over a network connection of the mobile computing device, and wherein the processor is operable to load said computer-readable instructions to said transitory memory for execution by said processor;
• an application including a graphical user interface comprising user prompts operable to instruct the processor to execute selected computer-readable instructions, wherein the graphical user interface is operable to perform one or more steps of:
• overlaying one or more primitive shapes in a first coordinate system, each of the one or more primitive shapes being additive or subtractive, to generate an analytical overall surface defined by subtraction of subtractive primitive shapes from a sum of additive primitive shapes;
• determining a resolution step, the resolution step having a geometric magnitude corresponding to a smallest desired feature of the analytical overall surface;
• segmenting the analytical overall surface to obtain one or more shells which are geometrically larger than the resolution step, each shell having a border with vertices, the vertices being spaced apart by a distance of about less than or equal to the resolution step;
• flattening the one or more shells from three dimensions to two dimensions by projecting the one or more shells onto a respective normal plane aligned on a second respective coordinate system;
• generating a number of concentric isolines in the one or more flattened shells;
• populating the concentric isolines in the one or more flattened shells with vertices being spaced apart by a distance of about less than or equal to the resolution step;
• identifying one or more portions of concave curvature and one or more points of convex curvature in the one or more flattened shells;
• meshing the one or more flattened shells to produce meshed, flattened shells by forming connections between adjacent vertices such that the connections between adjacent vertices in the respective flattened shells define respective pluralities of four-sided shapes within the borders of the respective flattened shells, wherein the connections generally pass through portions of concave curvature of the respective flattened shells and wherein the connections generally avoid portions of convex curvature of the respective flattened shells;
• unflattening the meshed, flattened shells from two dimensions to three dimensions;
• and
• aligning the meshed, unflattened shells in the first coordinate system to generate a meshed analytical overall surface.
