Class 3: Project Proposals¶
Thu. Mar 28, 2024, 5:00PM to 6:20PM, GHC 4211
Please note: room location has changed for the rest of the semester.
The essential objective for today is to present and critique the project proposal from each group.
Announcements¶
Looking ahead, next class (April 4) we will address technical questions for both programming and lighting design. The following week (April 11) we are off for Spring Carnival.
Each group should select one or two members to act as bridge system operator and send Garth an email listing identities. Garth will then distribute access keys and additional instructions. The details of Pharos system access can be found on Remote Access.
The operators should schedule a time soon to test uploading a new Pharos project to verify access and practice the process. Please use the Office Hours Booking Page for this or email Garth directly if nothing works.
Nighttime sessions to test out material on the bridge can be scheduled using the Pausch Bridge Booking Page. Times may be booked in two hour slots. Unscheduled times are possible, but please defer to groups with scheduled usage.
Project Proposal Presentations¶
Each group will have roughly fifteen minutes to show your storyboard and hear comments. (Assignment 2)
Assignment 3¶
Due: 2PM on Thursday Apr 4
The project handout is on the Project Brief page. As per the brief, during the next class we will review your technical proposals and discuss specific implementation strategies. Please prepare by working out a general technical plan for review. Please be sure to note any technical questions for which you would like guidance.
Please remember there are materials on the Pausch Bridge User Guide pages which may be of help.
Deliverable: one Google Doc per group placed in the Assignment 3 folder including the following:
notes on the technical implementation plan for each section of the overall composition
proof-of-concept implementations for key components
a list of unresolved implementation questions
