A4 Study 7
Study 7
I wanted to revisit my major project of last assignment and make it more prominent. Some feedback I received was to make the project ready to go by opening the patch, and so I used the inspector tool to make sure the patch opened in presentation mode and not edit mode. I also used the ‘load bang’ tool to trigger the camera and the audio to turn on whilst the patcher is being opened. This saves the user from having to turn on the functions in edit mode. As this was the main feedback In my previous assignment, I wanted to make sure this was the first thing I tackled in refining my study. I also took what I learnt in a class activity and added it into my refining, by using colour and text functions to create a more aesthetic looking project. Once again, these were located in the inspector tool, which has been super helpful in my development with this study and with the program altogether. Whilst refining my major project, I also wanted to work towards making it flow better for the user. I decided to create a new layout of text boxes and obstacles placings to ensure the user knows what to do next and helps them engage further with the piece. A main part of this last assignment was to also sustain the interaction with the user for over 5 minutes and so I used the playlist tool to add videos and sound to lengthen the interaction with the user, whilst adding a feature from my study 6 where I added a ‘guess which box’ game to lengthen the time of the users interaction.
