This week was a crazy week of finalizing details of my chair project.

It was spring break and I was sick and I am only doing this post to not jump from Week 9 to Week 11 because that would drive me crazy.

The first part of this week was semi unproductive as my plan moving forward required me to have access to the projector. We couldn't find it, so we tried to see if the other ones would work. All of them were either too small or didn't even turn on. After this, we discussed alternative ways to keep moving forward before having the projector. I haven't watched the tutorial yet, but my plan for the next week is to watch the tutorial and implement it into my project. Then I'll finish editing all the videos to be in the right spots in preparation for adjustments. This will set up my project to only need the projector for the final details.

This week, I downloaded all of the videos that I plan to use for the current iteration of this project to my external drive. I named each video and sorted them by their orientation and general time frame. I also designed and 3D printed a device to hold my phone in the chair. I created some templates to help with my projection mapping without needing to be playing the videos over and over until the mapping is mostly done. My main goal in this upcoming week is to use the projector to figure out what the projection will look like in the final product. The way I will put the videos together, and the angles they play at, depends on how wide the projector can actually go. Once that is done, I just have to finish putting all the videos in their spots using both TouchDesigner and Premiere Pro. After that, I just have to bring the chair down and set everything up for our critique on March 20th. I've already talked to my dad about making plans to get the chair to the Fine Arts Building earli...

This week was the real deep dive into TouchDesigner as I got really into my project.

 I had a mental breakdown this week so I don't have much to show.
