25th//may//2009//week 12// workshop

This week is the last week we have to complete our final product. Let's take a look at what is left. We need to use the buffer machine and buffer out the rough edges for the frame. Add in the slider so that the frame will be able to slide out and in smoothly. We need to finish the posters before the end of the week and send it for printing. We need to integrate the globe animation and the 3d landscape. We needed to build out mock up house with lego and program the lightings.

Since we all knew what is needed to be done, we spilt the work up and started working on individual portions. Vu and I headed to the lego room with the permission of Marie and just used whatever we could get from it to build out mock up smart house. We drew out a floor plan of the house and worked towards it. It was really the highlight of the project as this was really fun. It brought back memories of my childhood and it allowed me to use my creativity to build whatever I could think of. We used our creativity to create items such as television, dining table, cooking stoves and even an oven.

Luke did the buffering and I went to the workshop once a while to help him when he needed a extra pair of hands. Sean took over the task for the posters. He had to integrate the posters together by putting the contents and selected backgrounds together. Chris as usual was working on the phigets.

All in all the project looks close to its finishing stages. What we left is to discuss how to do the presentation. Which is the best way and best part of the room to do our presentation. There was no room for error. We needed to plan what we were each going to say.
