Nearly there

We've been mad busy all week putting the finishing touches to the project. All the inventions are complete and are in the room for the exhibition. This is how they look now...

'The Steam Powered Mac' 'Guided Grappling Hook' 'The Gramopod'

This week we put the finishing touches to the 'Gramopod'. It incorporates the look of an old wireless Gramophone and an ancient form of ipod. We also completed exterior shots of the newsreel to be shown in our museum. The shoot involved filming the 'bots', these are humanoid robots which feature heavily in the timeline for the museum. Above is some pictures from the costume test before the shoot.

We had our Demo this week which we think went pretty good. After deciding that the wind up device wasn't essential to the project the plan was changed to using a button that is pressed a number of times. Another interactive Encarta type page will be added to the Macs menu and this will inform users on other inventions and events that are not on the timeline. The 'Gramopod' and 'Heat Seaking Spear' are nearly complete. Below is an image of the spear and the speaker for the Gramopod...
