Final Presentations

Week 8 was the time for all of the studio teams to present their final fabrications and for our studio tutors to choose 2 of the designs for our next progressive assignment. As each team presented, I was impressed by each groups final designs and noticed how much work had progressed since we started Crysis. It was evident in all of the presentations that we had all gained some very advanced skills using a whole range of different programs in order to develop each project. Like most groups we had undergone some serious problem solving issues in various aspects of our design and found that many groups and individuals had actually collaborated together in order to find solutions and more efficient ways to using the Crysis Editor.

The presentations from all teams were well presented, using videos, powerpoint slides, images and accounts on their teams processes to outline to everyone to what made their design tick. Some groups approached the presentations in several manners, some as a recruitment drive, an advertisement, a production process and even a sales pitch. But what everyone did do was summarize the methods they used in developing their project and also what sort of particular elements needed work or improvements for their design to progress.

At the end of all the presentations, Jeremy, Graham, Stephen and Russell concluded that they decided to amend the final assignment to instead allow each group to further work on each design. They were so pleased with the standard of work, and felt that as a class we could benefit from advancing each project, rather than collaborating on only 2.
So now the next assignment will be for each group to continue working on their Crysis models and by the end of the course present their complete works again.
