This image shows what the final product looked like. This is what i was looking forward to since the start of the events project. It amazes me what we can produce in such as short amount of time. I am happy to say that I enjoyed the project a lot and met some interesting people in the process.

On the day the set up was fairly quick. There was a few problems with the software but they were on small. Unknowingly we split into teams. There was me and Krasimir working on the model. There was Simeon and Andy on the laptops setting up the projector and Cvetomila was taking the photos and videos. On the day I think we worked well together.

This image shows how the software works on the laptop. Using it we were able to adjust each panel to fit onto the sculpture.

We wanted to make sure that the interactive aspect from our previous idea was incorporated into our new idea. We did this by adding a couple of live camera feeds so that the public could become part of our sculpture.

We all decided to just make a few different sized blocks and put them together into some sort of structure. After adjusting the blocks and rearranging them a few times we ended with the structure shown in the image.

Once we had got to grips with the software we started to discuss what we all would like to see in the videos and what the model that we want to project on should look like. We pitched a few ideas to each other but we all agreed that it should still be interactive in some way.

Here we were looking at how the idea would work and how it would look. We started to project different effects and videos on to a simple block and realised that the software was simple to use.

At this point we had decided to change the idea a bit. This was due to the fact that we had starting experimenting with the projectors and we thought that we need to make it different and more unique. This is where we came up with the idea of having multiple projections projecting on to one model. This is where we started to play around with the new software called vpt.

We had a couple of objectives to complete today. The first one was making or finding some sort of animation software which interacts with real-time videos. In the image I have shown the software that we have found and how it interacts with use in the real-time video.

We started to look for different software which would help us in add effects to live camera feeds. This turned out to be a bit of a challenge but we found a way to counteract this problems if worse comes to worse.

today we started by presenting our ideas to the rest of the people in the room. Since my group had not finalised our idea we just pitched all of the different ideas that we had. We then asked the other groups which they thought was the best one. We went with a idea which involved people interacting with themselves.

Once the grouped had a bit of a discussion we decided that we should all go away and come up with some ideas which we will then put together and look for the best one. We started to look at different structures or forms which we could make to project the image/video on to.

Once we got to know the people who we had been grouped with we starting narrowing down what we had to do. We started looking for different areas/site we could use in Chatham. We came up with a few places which we could use. One of these places was the outdoor open space on the fourth floor.

The first session was interesting in the sense that we got to grips with what we will be having to do over the next two week period. The more I learned about the project, the intrigued I became into seeing what the end product of the next couple weeks will be. The first plan of action was to split into small groups and start pitching ideas to each other.
