Week 5 / PrOgReSsIoN

Wow, week five already past and we're making good progress!

A lot has been done this week.

Indre started working on the layout for the website that will show all kinds of Art & Technology events in Enschede. She worked on this during the weekend and the first result of this is show in the video below:

At the end of the week she made a lot of progress in the website and uploaded it to a domain called: maxschippers.com this is also where you can see the current website. Below another video of how it looks when I (Max) wrote this blog post.

On monday the NEW brandbook was finished as well. This brandbook has a lot changes and it fits much better with our concept right now! Shtilyan did a really good job on this!

Just before the week ended Shtilyan also went to Ricoh and printed out test stickers that we want to spread throughtout the city center!

Shtilyan and Marieke went to the city center and asked questions to our target group. They showed the target group our Brandbook, Animation and explained our general concept to them to see if they still like our idea.

The responses of the target group were extremely positive! Especially the respons on our brandbook was really good. People were very interested to try out our installation and gave us a good insite of what our target group wants.

Marieke came back from Sofia on Monday and started calling all kinds of companies from Tuesday on! Not only did she managed to get the Gogbot, Overkill and Sickhouse team to think about sponsoring us 100 euros she also managed to get Concordia to sponsor us for 75 euros! This way we can buy the perspex glass we need and already start promoting our installation througout the city with posters!

Rania posted 3 pictures on Instagram on monday that introduce half of the team members, the rest of the team members were posted later this week.

She also did a lot more research on the target group and remade some parts of the design document that needed some changes.

Sacha worked on the 3D models for our hologram. With a lot of help from teachers and exploring all the possible variables in her Unity project, she managed to get the particles inside the logos of the events that we want to promote! You can see this in the video below

Sacha en Max tested out the screens that we got from a good friend of Sacha and see if the brightness of the screens were bright enough! Luckily they were and we could use the screens!

Max managed to establish a good working connection from the Touchboard to Unity. This took very long to finally work correctly!

On thursday Max made an (almost) full scale size of one of the sides for the hologram with a cheapier version of perspexglass than we wanted to use before. The perspexglass that we used now worked really well as you can see in the picture below

On Wednesday we had our second Sprint Demo! Presenting our progress so far to our product Owner and our Scrumcoach. They didn't have big worries for our installation but they gave use some feedback that we should think about a bit more. For example to try and make it a bit more coherent on the interaction part.

And to finish this whole week Sacha's birthday was on the 8th of June and brought brownies with her! Below a beautiful video to get a mood impression of that day ;).
