Isadora

Isadora is a program I was looking forward to working with. I am always interested in working with different ways of interacting and watching media. I learnt very quickly that Isadora is something I can use and possibilities are endless. I started to research Isadora and came across this video which really inspired me to use it, particularly from 1 minute in. 

The brief stated that the Isadora project we had to produce had to be Halloween based, so the group I was put in decided to do a Zombie, haunted house, decision based game. We would have liked to make the project but getting used to the software was hard enough and gathering footage, images and sounds proved difficult. Despite this I feel we created an idea on what we wanted the game to be like.

Here is a screen shot of the 'decision' shot, created on photoshop:

Users then type A or B to go behind the corresponding door. One door leads to the user finding a key the other the user dies. This is the form that the game would follow throughout. Unfortunately I cannot upload the file to here as it can only be accessed through Isadora. 

While Isadora was difficult to grasp at first I quickly got to grips with the software and felt that it was something I would like to proceed to learn and maybe move onto more advanced projects, that requires more interaction from the user and therefore a more interesting experience. As a result of working with Isadora I am also thinking about using the program to create my final project which will involve interaction.
