evaluation of the digital showcase

in regards to the digital showcase i personally believe that the showcase did what it intended to do, which was to display the work created by the various games and media students, primaraly the games trailers created by the year 2 games students.

all the work that was showcased was all created before the showcase premired, i personally belive that regardless of pre-set deadlines the important thing is that all the showcased work was showcased which it was.

the media rooms displayed many different pieces of work such as concept art, storyboards, and other important production work, these were all arranged on big display boards around the two media rooms. the main focus of the showcase however was the game trailers which were on the big screen in sf04.

the big screens in SF04 and SF01 had work on them constantly looping, the screen in SF01 had individual pieces of work such as concept art, and renders from various students constantly looping. in SF04 however the games year 2 game trailers were constantly looping with audio.

some students stayed till late and assisted with potential future students by imparting information about the course and the programs it uses.

the teachers were incharge of the running of the operation.

many visitors came to the showcase such as potential students and their parents, parents of current students and ex students who had moved on the university.

various comments were made about certain aspects of the showcase some focus was shown towards the big screen with the game trailers looping, the comments were positive overall.

during the showcase a football match was shown on one of the televisions, personally i didnt like the idea of showing live international sporting events during a showcase about digital media and video games, I thought this was a bad idea as it shifted focus away from the work of students and the course, the rest of the showcase was at an excellent standard however.

personally i thought the game trailers looping in SF04 were the best part, i enjoyed this aspect very much.
