Storyline

Today was spent working on the presentation and meeting with Huff to get his feedback. Although the presentation on Monday went fairly smoothly, there’s still a lot of work to be done. First the Grad students met with Huff and went over their design schemes. Huff then met with the undergrads. We went through the whole powerpoint; adding a slide here, deleting a slide there, discussing formatting issues, graphics and transitions. We really picked apart each slide so that the presentation as a whole can be smooth and seamless. Like Huff keeps saying, “we are telling them a story”, therefore it must flow like a story.

Meanwhile, the graduate students were busy working on the presentation of each scheme in more detail. Animations were being more clearly thought out so that on Friday they will be presented in a concise manor. At the end of class we all went to the library to discuss the grad student’s work. The diagrams they came up with start by showing the existing structure.  Then the animations will start; leading way to the transformation of the structure into the new concept design. I really think that by incorporating these animated diagrams the driving points of each concept will be depicted clearly.

For Friday it is so important that this whole presentation is as smooth and clear as possible. So for now, it’s back to the studio to work on this storyline some more.
