Film & VFX Class: 5Wits Blog Assignment Due 5/6/18

Analyze your experience from both a player’s and creator’s point of view. Each answer should be 1-2 paragraphs long.

1. From a player’s point of view, discuss what you liked about the 5Wits experience.

2. From a player’s point of view, discuss what you disliked about the 5Wits experience.

3. Who do you think is the target audience for this experience? Were the games well-deigned for that audience? Did they do a good job adjusting for different age levels and abilities?

4. Using specific examples, discuss how video, audio and animation was used to enhance the experience in each room:
a. Tomb
b. Drago's Castle
c. Deep Space

5. From a media creator’s point of view, give some suggestions for how the experience could be improved. What you might you do differently if you were to create your own interactive escape room?

Project Planning Tool

Here is a free project planning tool that may be helpful with production on final projects. You can also use Google Cal, but this presents the info in a different way (called a Gantt Chart, which is commonly used in the media and software production industries) and lets you add notes, icons, etc. to help you see the overall project timeline.
