PURPOSE
The Ghosts of Building 20: Virtual Tour is a platform for the Ghosts of RMIT‘s students to showcase their individual work for the semester.

My role in this project was to setup the website that will present our works through out the year. We first planned out the contents and the categories for the home page, then also talked about ideas of the Logo

.I also helped out with taking photos for the VT in building 20 , with Cassie and Stephanie and also later on, merge the photos together in the final form. It took a lot of time to merge the panoramas together, and some of the stock photos weren’t good enough so we are taking the photos again next week.

In terms of peer collaboration, the team worked really well. Communicating and working with Cassie and Steph on Sunday was efficient and we got the work done easily and had no trouble completing it. Later on, thanks to David & Step for helping out with merging the panoramas, Jake now has all the photos needed for the platform and it’s looking great. We still have to work on it but Im happy with the outcome.

Through out the assessment tasks, I learned how expansive media can be, how mapping is important and the new technology nowadays that I never heard of before – The cardboard, the 360 view were really interesting. The idea of people in class choosing different approach to the buildings is amazing as well, as I got to see and witness different experiences in approaching in media.
