1. Virtual Tour

A virtual walk-through of the buildings using photos and panoramas, with each students work embedded in an appropriate space. The idea explored is about enhanced space, and how the space is able to be experienced remotely, as well as our individual works being available in this virtual reality space.

2. My role was mostly in the pre-production stage. During brainstorming, I tested out various tour sites such as youvisit and pinterest using the photos I had already collected from my individual project, then reported back as to what worked and what didn’t. I also did initial gathering of information, such as gathering floor-plans and researching possible methods of production, to deduce whether they would be possible.

3. Once the method was decided on, it was easier to plan what needed to be done. The most difficult part of production was deciding on the best hosting method for the tour, and how it would be structured. Many websites had shortcomings, and/ or cost a lot of money. But once we found a good option, we were more productive. in the future, it would be beneficial to be more decisive, rather than hoping you will stumble across a better option. Being willing to adapt your initial idea is important in media making, and we were eventually able to settle on an idea that we were happy with, and that was completely do-able.
