This past week, the lesson focused upon the gap between business and social media. With a mix from what we learned last week in the realm of social interactions on the web, this week was more about the appearance of those interactions. We were asked to deal with a little bit of excel and a little bit on html coloring systems (RGB). Professor Rubin stressed to us the importance of Excel in the practical world in order to make a business feasible and accounted for.
What I took from the lecture were some interesting ways of displaying my idea in a functional manner. I'm going to work with photoshop on the graphics of my game and after having heard about the differences between RGB and CMYK I can safely say that I understand the purpose of both. For example, if i were to make a video or wegpage about my business, I would format everything in RGB. However, as my game is physical and meant to be interactive in any environment, I would therefore choose to format my images on Photoshop in CMYK.
I have been working on the overall look of my game. Roughly, the outline of the game is coming together. Formally I havent yet gone in a particular path but I have made a firm and (YES) GREAT idea. The concept is this : THE BIG BANG. It's a game where opponents take their stars (right now just crumpled up post-it notes) and toss them into the sky. Whichever player has the longest, uninterrupted constellation wins! Attached are photos from my current stage of development.
If my object were able to hit stores, I could effectively use Excel to manage all of the incoming and outgoing profits and oversee inventory in a very precise fashion. Now that I hold within my hands the power of pivot tables, I can use that to analyze and summarize large amounts of data that would be recorded for my product.
