Due to\nthe COVID-19 outbreak, CMU has made a work from home policy and the ETC set us\nup with our desktops and VR devices so we had the equipment we needed for our\nproject. The bulk of the week went into setting up and testing our systems at\nour homes and coming up with strategies and plans to mitigate the effects of\nnot being able to physically work with each other for the rest of the semester.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Our arrangement has changed a bit due to this. Now Varun will be providing the motion data for his own system while Angela\u2019s going to be operating the virtual camera system independently through her headset. To test our workflow, we\u2019ve decided on a gold spike of sorts. We\u2019re going to be recreating a shot from Shawshank Redemption, in a manner similar to our process for Moonrise Kingdom. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While Angela and Shera worked with Kevin on\nthe design and UX of the virtual camera system, Arnav made a rough layout for\nthe scene and Varun ran tests on his motion capture system to make sure he\ncould configure it in a way that he could run it independently. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On Friday, the team got the opportunity to\ntalk to 2 people from Disney Technology Innovation Group &#8211; Mark Mine and Evan\nGoldberg. We got some valuable feedback on our systems, workflow and overall\nproject which we\u2019ve documented and also got some recommendations on software or\nprojects we could look at that might help us. While we did get some of our\ntechnical questions answered, they also gave us pointers on the overall story\nprocess and ways we could design our project so that our work aligns with\nindustry expectations.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This week, we started working remotely!
