Major changes. This week I spent a lot of time continuing my research, and meeting/chatting with people from the Small Business Development Center and the Sustainability Institute. Based on my research and meetings (and as we discussed during our 1-1) I made a change to the presentation of my final project/model. Turns out I can’t… Continue reading Jamie’s Research Update #2

I have been compiling a number of different premiere pro and after effects tutorials that detail some of the things that I am going to be doing in… Continue reading Marcus Moore Research Update #2

This week I continued to research level design for video games. Instead of focusing on balancing and game play like last week I began to delve into visual design elements. I did this by watching video tutorials that gave me some tips. Important things I learned included scaling suggestions to add depth to your level.… Continue reading Chad’s Research Update 2

This week I looked quite a bit into how Arduino works, as this will end up being an important part of the final project. I actually got a chance to use an Arduino during my Digital Fabrication class, and so I got the chance to learn some of the absolute basics. As a follow-up to… Continue reading Colin’s Research Update 2
