studio update…

Hmmm as the time draws near for the deadline for studio, so has the realisation that our idea isn’t working as easily as we had initially planned :( We were trying to work with Quartz Composer, however we were unable to link the camera from one computer to the other computer’s screen. Trying to find a way around this, attempts were made at using iChat to make it seem as though we’d figured it out. This didn’t work so well however, as you can’t do a three way chat.

As it stands, we’re going to make the frames for the screens, pre-film some footage, hire out/make some touch pads, use Luke’s old hacked keyboard, and do a wizard of oz style prototype. Perhaps separating the screens a little more so it’s not so obvious what’s actually going on. The pre-filmed footage will be used as a screen saver and will play until someone stands on the touch pad. This will then activate the camera to display the footage of a person in front of the other screen.

We have a little time to work out any glitches…

outlook = good.
