Having only 4 weeks of time until the Final, it was really important to make decisions upon the priorities and scope. While we were developing the PT. 3 outside world, we were still a bit puzzled on the design of ending scene<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For this week, we had a special visitor from the Dolby and CMU alumni\/library departments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Production:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">From the Weekly Advisor Meeting, John pointed us that:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>PT2. Footstep guides at the middle is not really guiding the guests.<br>(Better to either delete it or make it connected with more footstep guides)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>PT2. Instruction, visual guide on scanning \/ collecting needs to be more intuitive<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>PT3. Maybe we can remind the guest to scan the environment by automatically showing them the scanning view at first<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>PT3: The moment letting the guest take a breath as listen to the \u2018gravity..\u2019 and take a look around is good<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>PT3: Bending down to pick up \/ collect the sample &#8211; difficult, The location of samples should be higher to make collecting easier<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>When we ask for feedback \/ discussing the ending with faculties\/clients, make sure to explain the intention \/ purpose for the decision so they would not miss the essence<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Also, we reached out to our Faculty Consultant Ruth and got some insightful feedback.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Must build\/develop EXT. environment visually compelling as well as INT. spaceship<br>Adding sth for the spectator view would also be a huge plus<br>(progress bar, some ui features, Rendered texture, Mission\u2026)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>In overall color usage of EXT. world is too red. Give more contrast between the elements -Ex. samples to be obsidian black, dark rock<br>Suggesting color combination: pink, yellow, orange, brown, grey<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Main interactive object of task: crystal sample, Make it cooler!<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Liked Jelly fish &#8211; hope they had more sounds, interaction, feedback<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>After each collection, hope there was more feedback. EX. change of the environment<br>(This has been discussed within the team as well but still we were puzzled of the way to design the interaction with the right scope &amp; the intuitive connection to the world)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Needs spectacles in the end that make sense, but showmanship coolness more important<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Being outside exp: feels like a cheat\u2026 needs to be better to match like inside spaceship<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Highest priority seems to be the Ending &amp; Spectacles<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Itertations:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">After team meeting the User stories \/ Task lists for the next sprint upon priorities were:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Guest can reactivate the boots without centering again\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>New SDK needs to be implemented, Phoebe needs some time<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Guests can use scanning functions in a more intuitive way\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>solution 1) Try new method of scanning : change the whole view with different mesh<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>solution 2) Modify the current method : Scanning screen size \/ UI \/ angle<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>More intuitive, clear Scan \/ Collecting Tutorial, guests can apply it when they enters PT.3 : <br>(But needs to be waited until we see if the new method of scanning works)\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>solution 1) develop the current version at PT.2 EX. actual sample pop up<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>solution 2) Or move it to PT.3 and teach the guests directly at the outside world <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Guest needs to walk less, feels less tired or uncomfortable to complete the world\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Make the scale of outside worlds smaller<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Modify layout, Longer distance task would be deleted<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The location of the sample would be higher so the guest doesn&#8217;t have to bend down<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Guests experience more interaction \/ feedback from the environment after each collection\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Change on the Light &#8211; Starts darker and gets bright<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Trees grow &amp; bloom at the terrain<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Narrative doesn&#8217;t have to be explicit but turns out that the crystals were giving a bad influence on the planet.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Design of the rewarding ending\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>News: Solved energy crisis?\u00a0Changes in the environment?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Demo:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/drive.google.com\/drive\/u\/2\/folders\/1qvkaU2KJZdOw9AYAK2LQqKKjTBbKR7PG\" data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"https:\/\/drive.google.com\/drive\/u\/2\/folders\/1qvkaU2KJZdOw9AYAK2LQqKKjTBbKR7PG\">Apr 5th Demo 1<\/a> | <a href=\"https:\/\/drive.google.com\/drive\/u\/2\/folders\/1qvkaU2KJZdOw9AYAK2LQqKKjTBbKR7PG\" data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"https:\/\/drive.google.com\/drive\/u\/2\/folders\/1qvkaU2KJZdOw9AYAK2LQqKKjTBbKR7PG\">Apr 5th Demo 2 (Continued)<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Apr 3 &#8211; 9 Summary: Being only 2 weeks ahead of the Soft Opening, we [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-149","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-blogs"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/projects.etc.cmu.edu\/vektor\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/149","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/projects.etc.cmu.edu\/vektor\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/projects.etc.cmu.edu\/vektor\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/projects.etc.cmu.edu\/vektor\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/projects.etc.cmu.edu\/vektor\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=149"}],"version-history":[{"count":9,"href":"https:\/\/projects.etc.cmu.edu\/vektor\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/149\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":316,"href":"https:\/\/projects.etc.cmu.edu\/vektor\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/149\/revisions\/316"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/projects.etc.cmu.edu\/vektor\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=149"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/projects.etc.cmu.edu\/vektor\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=149"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/projects.etc.cmu.edu\/vektor\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=149"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
