• Idea Refinement / Design

  Alden • 4 days ago • 0 comments

  Design and artstyles requires more testing and refinement.

  Right now currently creating a 3D model to prototype before heading back to class for two days straight to hopefully, finally finish the design style.

• Prototype Sketching / Designing

  After realizing that a whole weeks worth of time was wasted, I proceeded to create and test out to appropriate sizes for the boxes which will be holding my first ever prototype. I call it :

  V 0.1 - The first ever prototype!

  I have proceeded to create the art for it, which is Vector of course as I want it to look cartoonish, vectorish, cute and serious. *A very strange combo indeed*

  Finally the materials so far will probably only consist of cardboard and probably compressed saw dust. (I forgot the name of the material)

  The first box prototype will have a size of 40x30x40 cm, which is of course following the X Y Z axis for reference.

  Fonts used are taken directly from Dafont, called KS Hand for the front of the box to attract potential users. Second font is called Dream Orphans, which is for the text "template" as I call it, which will be located inside the boxes.

• Idea Proposition / Development

  Initial thoughts and ideas about the project was to create a booth that tells a story about the sad life of stray animals using either visuals or audio, OR one that overlaps the other.

  After critiques from the lecturers however, the ideas started branching out and the idea of placing hidden interactive parts of the projects around the exhibition to not only add a bit of a quest for users to find but also to give sense to the meaning to the story.

  Adding audio such as a meow or whimper will surely add extra attention and invoke a sense of curiosity into users at the exhibition.

  Not only that but adding mechanical parts to 2D cutouts of illustrations of the stray animals will add more level of interactivity.

  Right now all that needs to be done is to solidify the idea and presentation.
