I have created three types of switches to alter the lighting on the arduino board. I programmed the board to alter the light to change when the switch has been pushed. I have tested these switches to proper my mutant toy. This assignment requires an output and input device to create this toy to interact by pushing the button. The First button I built was made out of cotton and wire strands, tin foil and needle,s soldered to the end of the wires to then be fitted into the bread board. I then tested the button to visual inspect whether or not it fits the purpose of the mutant toy. The last button was a proper push button. I added the wire strands by soldering them onto the button then connecting them with the needle pieces to be added to the bread board. They were all tested in the end and all was successful in the development process.

This you tube video shows the affects and mind thinking that this person has put into creating this instrument using Max/Msp. I think that visualising the way these people build and construct these components is very interesting and helps my design thinking.

In constructing this dvd cover for our final design I used photoshop to manipulate and combined all the relevant images which all relates to the theme of Heist which this is our genre selection. I added all the character names along side with brief information about the film outline.  
This is our groups final poster that was created by using a variety of photo taking images and combining them altogether to create this large poster. I Thought that in conducting this image, I gathered all the relevant images  and then started selecting and editing the images together. I first constructed the silhouette with all the character individual editing them on photoshop. For each character, I selected the best and appropriate image that would operate well in contrast with all the other images of the characters. I then went to the the cemetery to snap an image of a grave (headstone) to add as the background image for the poster to act as a representation of the Lucy who is red riding hood in our film. Adding the poker cards to the poster relates to the theme of the game poker which all contrasts to our film where we played a poker scene in relation to the delivery of the letter. I changed the original name of the poster from Heist to the translated name Furto which is translated from English to Italian. I thought that switching the name to the Italian language would reflect more as a Mafia movie. To then complete the entire poster, I added roses to the poster to relate to the theme of Red because in the film we used black and white and red through out the film. In conclusion to the poster, I enjoyed conducting and building the piece of art work. Even though i could of done alot better in manufacturing this product by keeping it more simple and having more words added into the poster. It shows imagery and looks eye catching.

We spent multiple minutes taking images and creating video scenes that operates in a perfect section for our film. We filmed in the cemetery that acts as a perfect representation for our red riding hood scene. We act as if Lucy, our Red Riding actor as if she has died, and now we have attended her grave to pay our respects for the debt that we done. I have taken images of of the grave head stone to show the audience that we have our attention on this important scene of Lucy's grave (death)
