Film & VFX:

Analyze your experience at Escape City 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 overall Escape City experience.

2. From a player’s point of view, discuss what you disliked about the Escape City  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. Body Collectors
 b. Over the Falls

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?

(Don't forget to also complete weekly comments to get full credit for this week.)

Film & VFX: Extra Credit Video Opportunities

https://www.filmshakers.org/

If you find other contests with deadlines that are still viable, feel free to share them with me for extra credit consideration.

I will also still take the chase scene exercise as extra credit, but it must have music, sound effects, etc., and some time put into it!

EXTRA CREDIT Blog Assignments Due 04/28/19 (Both Classes)

For this extra credit blog, you will be discussing the following two TED Talks. Make sure you cover BOTH in your summary and analysis. You can either discuss them individually, or find common themes to relate them to each other; your choice.
