Hi there, welcome to project Flint!
Flint is a 2015 Fall ETC project aiming at creating an interactive experience at the Energy Lab at Elizabeth Forward Middle School for Grade 7 kids.
This week, Flint aimed at effective communication with the client, and tried to figure out what the project would look like. The team had two brainstorming sessions, one on Tuesday and one on Wednesday after meeting our advisors. In these sessions, team members tried their best to find possible interactions that may attract Grade 7 kids, while the same time strictly connected to the scene – Energy Lab.
On Thursday, the team visited our client – Elizabeth Forward Middle School at their campus. The client introduced the project to the team, and demonstrated the previous Energy Lab projects. After that, the team presented several pitch ideas to the client, and asked the client for their comment. The client was excited about the pitch, and they gave the team many useful suggestions. The team decided to quickly work out a second pitch in the coming week and try to fix the deliverables asap.
On Friday the team enjoyed a short break and took their team photos!
The team will start prototyping technical challenges and figure out the Dos and Don’ts in the next week. Also, as mentioned above, the team will continue the iteration with the client to define the deliverables for the project.
See you next week!
