As i have already developed the interface, it is now the time to demonstrate where it would be used and how. I am going to build it in google sketchup, create short animated scenes and edit it with titles in windows movie maker to present it.
I originally created an ad for it, which although was very quirky, didnt really show how my outcome would be used in context. The simplest way to do this is through a model, and the presentation of this.
I have taken some screenshots from google sketchup to work from (i am not allowed to take photos on site for child protection purposes).
This will form the basis of my model, and i will then place an interactive piece in the space to show where it would go. The interactive screen should not detract from the childrens enjoyment of the playground or feel like an obstace, and it must not distract the parents from collecting their children too much, so they should still be facing the places where the children come out (there are two doors which i will mark on my map. i will also show where the parents are and their eyeline.). The playgrounds are quite visibible, and the interaction would be placed somewhere in there.
Edit (Next day)
I have just finished the basic 'before' state of the model. I overlaid it onto a google earth screenshot of the layout.The next thing i have to do is put together the video. I am first going to record my introduction into the piece, so that everything happens in order and i dont get too far ahead of myself!
EDIT: i just finished my introductory video. Now to work on my research and process sections video. I have uploaded this to my portfolio wesbite. I have decided to put titles, and a textual version on every page underneath the video so that there are more options for users.
