Presentations

Audience: DMC 1&2 Groups and HND Interactive Multimedia

Rae and Harry presented their team project of a video and Poster advertising the new Sims product

The video had a very good twist within and music fitted the twist. The poster was very Sims like

The client was Maxis published by Electronic Arts. Images were supplied by Electronic Arts and if project won music will be licensed for it.

The video was very well done and the poster appropriate. Harry and Rae made a very professional presentation of the work. The material all worked well on the electronic smartboard. The sound was quite dynamic.

The audience enjoyed the presentation and were complimentary of the products.

All other groups will present on Wednesday of next week
