Pirate Science Agenda and Notes 8.28.07

Agenda

• Review Experiment storyboards, finalize script, decide on programming approach and method for putting into action.
• Review tasks from last week, identifying what still needs to be done
• Review new agenda items (below)

Done From last week:
• Barbara will update Hypothesis script and deliver to Kyle
• Kyle will update the experiment storyboards to include hypothesis activity
• Logan will give Powder Monkey Lobby assets to CC.
• CC, Matt and Jeremey will review audio to:
• Make a list of audio that was done that won’t work
• Identify audio that is still needed.

Remaining to do
• Gerritt will give CC a rough version of opening so that CC can put it in working version of full game. (ready when CC is ready for it)
• CC will put in additional ambient audio and sound effects in as possible, noting what sounds are still needed when he has all from Jeremey and working from Matt’s master audio list.
• CC will update programming to ensure final animations, assets, game modules are in, and deliver link to game to Pam for review.
• Pam will create a final project check off list to make sure all final files (animations, assets, game modules) are being used and stored/collected properly. She’ll share with CC and try to keep it updated. She and matt will merge lists.
• Powder Monkey needs new music. Jeremey will redo based on Matt's requirements and give to Matt/CC
• Pamela will review all audio levels.
• Gerritt will come up with a list of 3-d screen shots he needs for the opening, particularly after the lobby versions were final.
• Jeremey will continue editing and revising as per the list he and Matt created.

New To Do’s
• Kyle needs to add the new powder monkey lobby to the composite shots of the island
• Kyle will update experiment storyboards with:
• Show the pirate talking to the captain (or make a note of it, this doesn’t need to happen n storyboards)
• Provide some kind of transition to meet rats (like they pop up and say, Can we help you?)
• Accept/reject on hypotheses
• Show feedback on hypothesis where you can see the hypothesis and the feedback at the same time
• Include emphasis (bold, italics) on text and hypothesis
• Audio is read on intro of hypothesis instructions, and feedback after each group of hypotheses, but not individual hypotheses
• When the rats talk about the handwashing procedures, they need to talk to a group of people
• Label the chart of groups
• Replace the “do you know the answer to this question” with a “Pick your conclusion” and check with pam on text for that.
• Leave postermaker for now, but on final version, they pick one graphic, one opening statement, and one collection of “to do’s”.
• Barb will approve storyboards
• CC will program up to the point of the Agar song
• Matt will work on hypothesis tree in Flash and deliver to CC
• Matt will continue experimentation in Flash and deliver to CC
• Matt will update IVDV grid in Flash and deliver to CC
• Matt will do the poster maker in Flash
• Dialog back with pirate captain goes CC

To be Discussed:
• Testing will start late September
• Scripting question
• Review experiment storyboards
• Decide on programming approach for storyboards.
• Need to develop timeline for delivery and remaining work to do in September
• Need to finalize list of what will be done for testing Delivery
• Opening review
