<br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><u>ROLES</u></span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><b>Concept</b></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><b><br /></b></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">We decided to create a dynamic and immersive environment in which the user will gain an interesting and new perspective of a computer virus. The user is in a surreal forest where they are left to heal infected trees. We expanded on our original idea by adding additional levels. We originally were going to go with three levels + a boss level, but we decided to stick with three levels (third level being the boss level). It was necessary to obey the Rule of Thirds!</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Expansion: </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Kinect Implementation - For Circuitree 1.0, there was a large separation between the user and the environment because of the navigation system (computer). It was only natural to pursue the kinect since it involves the body.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Larva- Besides the computer worm, the larva are also responsible for spreading the virus. The larva interact by infecting trees and attacking the user. When the user gets attacked by the larva, the camera shakes. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Environment - The environment was expanded to three levels. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">1st level: The user encounters environment and explores. The user notices green (healthy) and red (infected) trees in the environment. The user can heal trees in this level. The user also encounters a few larva in the level. Larva infect the healthy trees. The user can kill the larva by "stomping" on them. Once the user has healed a certain amount of trees, the gate opens and they can proceed to the next level. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><b><br /></b></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">2nd level: The user encounters more larva and continues to heal infected trees. Once the user has healed a certain amount of trees, the gate opens and they can proceed to the final boss level.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">3rd level: The user has to heal four columns around the computer Worm. The worm can attack the user. After they heal the columns, they heal the alter which is the central computing processor. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><b><br /></b></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><b>Technical Background</b></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Used the Kinect in conjunction with Unity to create a more immersive experience when playing the game. It proved easy to install and run in Unity, but the real challenge came with gathering the Kinect data and transferring that data to the controller mechanics. There was a vast array of scripts that were all communicating with each other while Unity was running, making it rather difficult to sift through thousands of lines of code to find only certain pieces of the script that were needed for implementation. Thanks to <a href="http://krisviz.wordpress.com/">Krista Murphy</a> and her successful implementation of the kinect in <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=9tHbsZg_XYE">Honey, I shrunk something!</a> (see research below) she was able to guide me through the process of gathering the data ans using it for player control.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><b>Research</b></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Technical:</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Kinect controls were researched, such as how best to use the body to control the movement of the character in a 3D space. Should we control the character using the movement of our upper body like a joystick? Perhaps the head movement could be tracked so that you could simply lean forward and backward? How will you turn the camera to look at the world around you? perhaps by rotating your shoulders? Or using your hand as a kind of "guide" for the camera? Or possibly using both your hands as a kind of steering wheel as if you were in a vehicle? We ended up polling people their opinion on past Kinect experiences with games similar to ours, as well as researched online the best methods of Kinect character control. Ultimately it was decided that the head would be tracked to control the movement of the character on the X & Z plane, as if you were a giant joystick, and then the shoulder rotation would determine the rotation of the camera on the Y axis. Below are two videos on Kinect movement implementation that we used extensively as a reference.</span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><b>Process</b></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Unity & Kinect:</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">We first decided to get the hardest part out of the way, which was the Kinect implementation in Unity for player movement, though this proved to be the least time consuming and easiest part of the project on the technical side. Once the Kinect was working, scripting began on the game. First, the initial game was re-scripted up to before the boss battle (tree healing), and then the addition of the Larva AI introduced. (see challenges below for more details) </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">As Oscar implemented the Kinect with Unity, I was off to model a new feature to the game: Larva. Thankfully, I had saved previous versions of the worm model and was able to construct the larva from separate pieces. In the levels, the larva infect healthy trees and also come after the user. They can bite at the user which causes the camera to stumble. The user can kill the larva by lifting their leg and "stomping". The larva has two attack and three death animations. </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">I also rigged, textured, and animated the larva.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><b>Challenges</b></span><br />
<br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Unity & Kinect:</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Several issues arose, which are listed below, and were widely researched through Unity's amazing reference library and support forum.</span><br />
<b style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br /></b><br />
<b style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Determining the current level and using that information to change game states and larva activeness</b><br />
<b style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Particle systems for tree healing and final pedestal</b><br />
<b style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Particle system lightning effect for the worm boss</b><br />
<b style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Correcting the larva orientation to match the terrain using ray casting</b><br />
<b style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br /></b><br />

<div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Infecting trees</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Attacking player once a certain "closeness" was reached</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Death</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Spawning from the mother worm during the boss battle</span><br />
<ul><ul>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Spawning larva</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Following the player</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Attacking the player once a certain "closeness" was reached</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Death</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Receiving "power" from the pillars (electricity going to its body and following it)</span><br />
<b style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br /></b></div>
<div>
<b style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Generative level creation</b></div>
<div>
<b style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Kinect sensitivity changing depending on the distance of the player</b></div>
<div>
<b style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Kinect not being able to re-calibrate users once they went off screen or calibrate a different user</b></div>
<div>
<b style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Kinect shoulder data becoming corrupt and "reversing" the rotation</b></div>
<div>
<b style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Kinect shoulder data needed to update rotation dynamically (the more you rotate your shoulders, the more the character turned)</b></div>
<div>
<b style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Kinect stomp being extremely delayed at times</b><br />
<ul>
</ul>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Everything else was either already implemented from the last version or didn't take too long to implement.</span><br />
<br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Rigging:</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">The worm rig was supposed to be updated in order to provide better control for the animation of the boss, but the spine IK setup proved to be problematic. Controls were not being updated with the movement of the spline (ie. leg/arm controls, head joint and jaw controls) Trying to fix the issue by parenting and/or constraining control movement to the spline caused double influence on joints and interesting rotation problems.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><b>Future Improvement</b></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><b><br /></b></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Health would be an essential characteristic for the game. Right now, the larva attacks only cause the camera to stumble or shake. The larva would have more purpose (besides infecting trees) if they actually did damage to the user. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Wiimote: The wiimote would be used for camera orientation. This would allow the user to look up and down. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><b>User Experience</b></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">1st person: Users felt as if they were in the environment. They thought the game was enjoyable and wanted to explore. (Screen was lowered to make the ground plane parallel to the actual ground).</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">2nd person: People enjoyed watching users play the game. They encouraged and helped the user through the environment when navigating for infected trees or larva. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">3rd person: People seemed to be actively involved in the game, whether they watched the user or actually played Circuitree.</span><br />

I had to check each model (5 rocks, 2 plants) to see if their normals were correct. For the first project, Circuitree's trees normals were inverted. That's why the the models were missing a few faces. Oscar also had to fix the normals for each tree. He separated them into different parts. I reconstructed them by putting each of the tree parts together in an irregular manner. </span><div>

<div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">As for textures, Oscar created the new texture for the worm, larva, and trees. I did the textures for the rocks and the plants. The plant texture wasn't mapped correctly, so I plan to change it before the VIST show. </span><br /><div>

<div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Hwaryoung suggested that Oscar and I should continue broadening Circuitree since it has potential. </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Our previous idea for our final project would have been difficult to achieve in the limited amount of time. This time, we hope to expand the game along with immersion and interaction.</span></div>

We are going to have a small ensemble perform on stage. The conductor is going to conduct with a wiimote. The conductor's movements will be visually represented on a screen. We have not decided on what the visuals will be yet since we need to figure out our piece of music first.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">I contacted the TAMU Orchestra instructor, Paul Sikes, yesterday and we are going to meet today to discuss our idea to see if he is interested. He is usually pretty busy at the end of the semester with band and orchestra concerts, but he may be able to suggest a short and appropriate piece for our project. If we decide to involve the audience using a kinect as Hwaryoung suggested, we will need a happier, more interesting piece. Here is some research I did relating to conducting with wiimotes:</span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: large;"><b>Concept</b></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Our project idea sprouted from our first projection mapping exercise several weeks ago. Laura liked incorporating shadows, so we continued to work with them for our second project. We initially had issues finding our "space" to project onto, but thankfully Hwaryoung suggested an interesting place on Building A of the Architecture school. </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">She suggested at first that we project from our studio down onto the space. Unfortunately, the glass created too much reflection. We re-arranged ourselves on the breezeway. The space</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"> is the second story on Langford A, above Azimuth. The space works well because there is not any interior lighting that interferes with the projection. It is also visually interesting at the angled perspective. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Laura and Cameron originally played with the idea of positioning doors on each of the panels/slats of the building. We continued with the idea for our project, but provided two interesting characters: the man and the shadow creature. The three of us decided it would be interesting to make the project interactive with movement (webcam) even though it was not required. Through quick discussion, we decided on our final concept:</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><i>A silhouette of a man walks through a series of doors. From the shadowed areas, a shadow creature stalks the man though reveals itself gradually. If there is no movement in the area of the web cam, the man will get eaten by the shadow creature. If there is movement, the shadow creature spooks and darts back into the shadows. </i></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: large;"><b>Technical Background</b></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">We used the program VVVV for the projection mapping. Laura created the transformations for the walls using a function that takes the desired output corners. VVVV has easy functionality for displaying videos. Unfortunately, it only reads certain file types with certain codecs. Laura created functionality to randomly generate the action queues for the characters. For more details on how Laura created the program, see her blog:</span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: large;"><b>Research</b></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Since I decided to use ZBrush for modeling and 3D Coat for retopologizing (two programs I was unfamiliar with), I had to do some research. I looked up several tutorials that gave me guidance on each of the programs. Thankfully, Jarrod Simpson is rather familiar with ZBrush. He was also able to help me immensely and lead me in the right direction. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Laura, Cameron, and I did additional research on the movement of our shadow creature. Randall from Monster, Inc. was used as a reference for the movement of the creature. Laura found many, many videos of lizards. She has a post dedicated to her reference videos:</span><br />

<br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">For look development, one of references was Limbo. Cameron felt the silhouette of the man needed eyes so that the audience could connect with the character. My design for the shadow creature was influenced by Insanely Twisted Shadow Puppets. </span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: large;"><b>Process</b></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Cameron, Laura, and I worked in a partial non-linear path. Cameron and I were responsible for the models and animation while Laura created the program for our interactive projection mapping. Cameron and I followed the general pipeline by starting with modeling, rigging, and animation. Cameron modeled, rigged, and animated the man. He also did the eat animations. </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">We have four different types of animations for the shadow creature, with additional variations of those four types. There are peaks, advances, eats, and spooks. These are videos that are randomly generated through Laura's program. </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">By the time Cameron and I were animating, Laura had already completed majority of the program. We just needed to implement our rendered videos into VVVV. Laura also did the rig for the shadow creature after she created the program. She made dual offset SINE Modifiers for the rig so the shadow creature could move like my original concept drawing. She alternated working between the rig and the program a couple of times. After we finished majority of the program, we had to render and composite the animations in Adobe AfterEffects. Laura created a calibration image so we could properly align and measure the panels when we composited. The calibration image was originally created to make sure they were sized correctly on each panel. </span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: large;"><b>Challenges</b></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">The three of us ran into several issues, each individual and different. I ran into several issues since I decided to use ZBrush to model. As of two weeks ago, I had no experience working with the software. It was a bold move on my part to attempt to use ZBrush for a two week project. It was challenging, but I partially now know an additional program I could potentially use in the future. I found 3D coat's auto-retopology function the most difficult challenge for me. I was even more unfamiliar with the software and re-topologizing a mesh. The function was able to partially retopologize the mesh, but it wasn't exactly acceptable for animation purposes. Laura and I combined two separate meshes for the final model. The low resolution base mesh from ZBrush was used for the body, and the next highest resolution head was used. Laura skinned the separate meshes together. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: large;"><b>Emergent Narrative</b></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">The narrative becomes important when the audience recognizes their role in the interactive project. Their role is first not evident until they recognize that their movement has an impact on the animation. If they stand still, the man will get eaten. If they create movement, they will spook the shadow creature and save the man from death. At this point, the audience becomes part of the narrative - they determine the man's fate. Interesting enough, we found that the audience desired to see the man get eaten by the shadow creature. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: large;"><b>Future Improvement</b></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">In the future, we would like to improve several characteristics. I would definitely like to do additional peak, advance, eat, and spook animations. We have on average about three different animations for each currently. We would also like to improve the interaction between the audience. We would need additional lighting so the web cam could recognize movement better. A more fluid spook system would enhance our project. Though it is interactive, we all agreed that audio or sound effects would make the project increase suspension of disbelief. The audience also did not immediately understand their role in the narrative. My team and I would need to create a more obvious role for interaction.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">I wish we could have had more time on the project, but I still found it exciting and different. This was the first time for me (and majority of us), to do projection mapping. This project has broadened our knowledge and portfolio/demo reel. I am very happy I partially know ZBrush now. I plan on doing some personal work in the near future with ZBrush. </span><br />

Here's what's new:</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">I finished the shadow creature model last Sunday and used 3D Coat to retopologize the mesh. 3D Coat has an auto retopology function that uses manually created guides on the mesh to help with edge flow. For the most part, Auto-retopology works. I ended up redoing the function about 10 times just to get a decent mesh I could work with. I took the mesh into Maya and fixed what I could. I found several tris and holes within the mesh, which were difficult to fix. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Laura and I decided to use the lowest subdivided mesh from zbrush for the body, and the auto-retop creature's head. Laura is finishing up the rig at the very moment I believe. I will be creating most of the animations for the shadow creature. I created some blend shapes that will be utilized in our animation as well.</span><br />

Even though we do not have much time to complete the project, I feel this project is a good opportunity to experience a new program. I started with Zspheres to create the basic frame of the creature. My first model did not include the toes, so it was rather difficult trying to sculpt toes with not enough geometry. I had to go back to a previous file and add the toes, along with the spikes on the body before I could sculpt.</span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">On Saturday night, Cameron and Laura tried out the suggested space on Building A (southwest side, by TRC). Instead of projecting from our studio space (as discussed last Thursday), it was easier to set the projector on the breezeway's bridge area. Laura and Cameron did a test projection of doors on the angled space.</span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">On Sunday afternoon, Laura, Cameron and I established our concept. Laura really liked the idea of including shadows, as we did in our previous exercise. We continued with the door idea between each panel/slat, but we decided to incorporate a shadow creature along with interaction. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><b>Projection</b>: There will be a silhouette person walking between doors (located on each panel) as a shadow creature stalks him. The creature will appear from the shadows and will try to engulf the person, unless there is movement around the area. The creature will spook and hide back into the shadow/shadows. As an audience, their goal is to prevent the person from being eaten by the shadow creature by creating movement. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">I got to design the shadow creature. As of now, I plan to create and animate the creature with AfterEffects using the Puppet tool. It was inspired by two main references: Randal from <i>Monsters, Inc.</i> and <i>Insanely Twisted Shadow Puppets.</i></span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Laura, Cameron and I tried out our projector for the second time last night. Laura made a diagram of our concept, so we decided to project her image on our wall to check perspectives and shadows. We originally were going to project on the opposite side (left), but I noticed that the TRC's lights from the windows may interfere with our projection. I decided to record our mayhem. You'll have to excuse Laura. She had a little too much coffee. </span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">On Tuesday night, Cameron, Laura, and I constructed two triangles of white foam board (one triangle half the size of the other) to project onto. We decided our mood should be <i><b>Mystic</b></i>. After we constructed the triangles, we placed them on white roll paper as a background and base. Laura and Cameron made additional animations to test on the triangles. Since Cameron ran VPT, I helped spot the points on the physical triangles.</span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Laura's idea was to have the triangle shadows transfer between each other. Cameron found ink footage that could be used. Since the videos generally have white backgrounds, Laura and I had to edit them in AfterEffects to properly adjust the opacity. Unfortunately, we were unable to saturate the ink footage to the same value of the triangle shadows. We thought it would be interesting to have similar triangle shadows on the curved part of the white paper behind the triangles. Laura created a desaturated image of a triangle that Cameron placed adjacent to the actual triangle's shadows. As for music, we thought it would be appropriate to find ambience since our mood is Mystic. I found our current piece of music for the exercise titled, "Midnight Lights":</span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">My team decided it would be less immersive for the user to navigate through a maze. Instead, we have a dense forest with some infected red trees. We have a separate area (which is gated) for the source of the virus, which is a hill with infected columns and ruins. The gate has 9 lights on it (representing the 9 infected trees). When the user disinfects a tree, a light on the gate will turn green. After the user heals the trees, the gate will open to the hill. The user then has to heal the red, infected columns, then go to the center of the ruins to heal the rotating orb. An idle animation for the worm in the environment when the user confronts the source of the virus. The worm will die when the user heals the rotating orb in the center of the ruins. Besides the idle animation, I did a "death" animation where the worm dramatically falls to the ground. </span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">My team decided we would like a couple of animations for the worm in our environment, so naturally, a rig for the worm was required. I could not find any straight-forward tutorials for a worm rig, but I was able to refer to a snake references and rigs. Oscar suggested to use a spline IK chain for the body. Additional bones were added for the legs, mouth, tusks, and head. Oscar created the controls for the rig. The worm's textures mirror the infected trees.</span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">The worm took longer than expected. I thought the worm's segments would be easy to duplicate since they are generally the same length throughout its body. The duplication was simple, but the joining of vertices tended to be meticulous and time consuming. Here is the final model for the worm:</span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">After thorough discussion, we decided to change the Trojan virus to a Worm. The Trojan, though easily recognizable, is stereotypical and cliche. It is often used as a symbol of computer viruses. The Worm is more suitable for our forest-like environment. I did a concept sketch of worm and am currently working on the model. Here are some references I used to create the Worm design, along with the sketch. </span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Here are preliminary concept designs for the trees and trojan virus. For reference, I looked at the trees from the game Okami. I liked the dead look of the trees in Okami. Since the trees are infected in our project, I figured a dead, sharp look was appropriate. Our user is going to be able to disinfect the trees. When they are healed, the red lights on the tree will turn green. Oscar, Rheeny, and I tested out the red to green animation on the trees.</span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">This environment is based on the inner-workings of a computer. The user would log into a computer, the computer becomes "infected", and then they would be plunged into the environment/computer. It beings with the character "Spybot" in the middle of a jungle maze, a symbol of the complexity of the outer rim of the computer hardware, where they would explore the space, all infected, searching for the source of the infection. They would eventually come out to the motherboard - a giant castle in the middle of the jungle. The character would make his way through the great hall - a clean, structured environment, symbolizing the core structure of the computer, based in the motherboard. The source - the Trojan - would be found in the very center of the building, where it had established itself as a virus. </span><br />
