Summary of the week: This week, we finished up some of our final work and moved our materials to the crossover of the Rauh to install after Thanksgiving!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Shopping Trip<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

This week, Lauren led a shopping trip to Michael\u2019s and Best Buy to purchase any last items we needed for our installation including cloud fluff, prop stands, more hanging wire, electrical cables, etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Testing the materials we bought for the prop stands<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Audio<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

On Monday, Angie finished editing audio, as well as helping prepare for the move. All the audio files, the normal speaking voices and whispered deliveries, of the actors have been edited and are ready to run through the directional speakers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Plaques and Pedestals<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Lauren and Aldora laser cut the plaques out of black and gold acrylic sheets with Bryan\u2019s help. They came out great!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"\/<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Angie wrote on the plaques with invisible ink pen, changing the verb of the sentence to make it have a hidden meaning. For example, Goneril\u2019s plaque changes from \u201cthe daughter to carry on my legacy\u201d to \u201cthe daughter that will destroy my legacy,\u201d as seen in the photos below. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Aldora also finished the writing and painting on the pedestals using invisible ink pen and UV light.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Clouds<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Jiaxin worked more on the chicken wire clouds and finished three large hanging clouds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hardware and Software<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Charlie worked on getting the DMX lighting controls to integrate with Unity for all four UV lights. Charlie also diagnosed a problem around the mixer we chose not working with the Unity surround sound implementation by tricking it into thinking it was 7.1 surround sound with a virtual sound card.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Load-In<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Angie has been in contact with Alex, a student who works for the CMU School of Drama, to bring a truck to the ETC. On Tuesday, we brought all of our hardware to the ETC loading dock and drove it to the Purnell Center. Alex drove the truck and helped us bring it inside. Thank you, Alex! We stored everything in the crossover of the Rauh and with this, we are ready for our install next week. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our materials are all stored away in the crossover of the Rauh!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Conclusion<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The week was very productive, as everything is completed and ready to roll for our install at 9AM on Monday. Everyone gets to take a break for Thanksgiving weekend and rest up before the big event! Special thanks to Alex for driving the truck and Dave Purta for helping us get to this point!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
