Overview<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>

This week, we finalized scripts, progressed on tech setup, and prepared for recording and playtesting.<\/p>

<\/span><\/p>

Narrative & Recording Prep<\/strong><\/h3>

We finished writing all five scripts<\/strong> and sent them to the dramaturg<\/strong> for review and feedback. During our client meeting, we confirmed that we\u2019ll begin recording next week.<\/strong><\/p>

\"\"<\/p>

Hardware Progress<\/strong><\/h3>

With help from IT<\/strong>, we successfully connected the Morse tap hardware to Unity<\/strong> using Phidgets<\/strong>, allowing us to control audio recording input through physical interaction. This was a major step forward in integrating functionality with the telegram.<\/p>

\"\"<\/p>

Lighting Updates<\/strong><\/h3>

Jasmin spoke with Ruth<\/strong>, and we learned that we\u2019ll be able to use the 11 LED uplights<\/strong> that Drama is planning to purchase. Our plan is to use them to uplight the columns<\/strong> in the lobby to create an immersive, oceanic atmosphere. After an emailing the lighting designer for Titanic<\/em><\/strong> we got confirmation that this approach aligns well with the overall mood.<\/p>

Props & Planning<\/strong><\/h3>

We listed out all the props needed for each luggage station and began checking what we might be able to borrow from Drama\u2019s prop inventory<\/strong>. We’re continuing to source and organize everything to prepare for full setup and testing.<\/p>

\"\"<\/p>

Next Steps<\/strong><\/h3>

  • Continue playtesting<\/strong> interactions<\/p><\/li>

  • Complete hardware integration<\/p><\/li>

  • Build another luggage station for Playtest Day<\/strong><\/p><\/li>

  • Record voice lines for each station<\/p><\/li><\/ul>
