Blog 8 Final project

Well today was all self assigned work in the build up and completion of our final works.

The first idea I could come up with is toothpaste. I was thinking the kind with the 3 stripes red white and blue.
Later I decided to add an anvil to squash the toothpaste tube and send minty mess everywhere.

Right now I have neither I've got a greyscale "city" scape the rises out of the bottom of the screen and clouds that roll in form the sides. Right now I plan on having the clouds rain an anvil and animate the drop on to the toothpaste and add colour form there as the interactive feature.

If I make the toothpaste colours blue orange and white I can justify the work as some kind of limited pallet further adding to the main theme and make decorating the final CD and case a lot more manageable. Coloured stripes with some text are what I have in mind at the moment.

I spent some of today helping Brendan he is quite enthusiastic about making some kind of work about a basketball. If we can bridge the gap between his ideas and our abilities in a timely and effective manor we should have some fantastic works.

I got the results for my first assignment and I am pleased and I know what areas to work on for this final one to hopefully bring my score up to a HD.

The main parts are making the final piece look more finished, jagged edges and that sort of thing and my buttons need some special care also. I'll have to watch the sound I was unlucky that it didn’t work last time due to technical issues but it wont be an excuse this time.

Well I'm off to do things away from this paperweight with blinking lights and speakers.
