This time with our entire team and Heather Kelley. We used this time to explore the museum, play with the exhibits, and observe how children interact with the space. From watching children play with the Rube Goldberg exhibit and the tough art pieces we noticed a few things:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Exhibits need to be near indestructible<\/li><li>Children don&#8217;t play for a very long time<\/li><li>Experiences tend to be low to the ground, but as a result, those experiences are typically damaged<\/li><li>Experiences are engaging for adults as well<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>We also used this as an opportunity to get some great team photos for our website.<\/p>\n\n\n<style

the weekend, we put together a pitch deck for our client. We narrowed down our pitch to three distinct concepts:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>Giant Umbrella<\/strong>: A mixed-reality play experience for one or more guests. Guest controls a giant umbrella prop attached to a physical track. A rainy day scene is projection mapped on the back wall. The umbrella provides &#8220;coverage&#8221; from the rain. The guest can work together with another guest to provide coverage to creatures that appear.<\/li><li><strong>Mechanical Acts of Kindness<\/strong>: A non-competitive play experience depicting kindness as a chain reaction. Guest interacts with physical levers, pulleys, cranks, etc. to perform acts of kindness. These acts of kindness appear on a screen\/projection on the wall. <\/li><li><strong>Kindness Generator<\/strong>: An arcade-like experience, in which guest(s) can perform acts of kindness for a character using props (with RFID tags) to trigger reactions.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\">\r\n\t#foogallery-gallery-517 .fg-image {\r\n        width: 640px;\r\n    }\r\n<\/style>\r\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"foogallery foogallery-container foogallery-image-viewer foogallery-link-image foogallery-lightbox-none fg-center fg-image-viewer fg-light fg-loading-pulse fg-loaded-fade-in fg-caption-hover fg-hover-fade fg-hover-zoom fg-ready\" id=\"foogallery-gallery-517\" data-foogallery=\"{&quot;item&quot;:{&quot;showCaptionTitle&quot;:true,&quot;showCaptionDescription&quot;:true},&quot;lazy&quot;:true,&quot;template&quot;:{&quot;loop&quot;:true}}\" >\r\n\t<div class=\"fiv-inner\">\r\n\t\t<div class=\"fiv-inner-container\">\r\n\t\t\t<div class=\"fg-item fg-type-image fg-idle\"><figure class=\"fg-item-inner\"><a href=\"https:\/\/projects-old.etc.cmu.edu\/one-small-act\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/Unbrella.png\" data-caption-title=\"Giant Umbrella\" data-attachment-id=\"514\" data-type=\"image\" class=\"fg-thumb\"><span class=\"fg-image-wrap\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" class=\"skip-lazy fg-image\" data-src-fg=\"https:\/\/projects-old.etc.cmu.edu\/one-small-act\/wp-content\/uploads\/cache\/2019\/02\/Unbrella\/2605379762.png\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns%3D%22http%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2F2000%2Fsvg%22%20width%3D%22640%22%20height%3D%22360%22%20viewBox%3D%220%200%20640%20360%22%3E%3C%2Fsvg%3E\" loading=\"eager\"><\/span><span class=\"fg-image-overlay\"><\/span><\/a><figcaption class=\"fg-caption\"><div class=\"fg-caption-inner\"><div class=\"fg-caption-title\">Giant Umbrella<\/div><\/div><\/figcaption><\/figure><div class=\"fg-loader\"><\/div><\/div><div class=\"fg-item fg-type-image fg-idle\"><figure class=\"fg-item-inner\"><a href=\"https:\/\/projects-old.etc.cmu.edu\/one-small-act\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/Chain-Reaction-01.png\" data-caption-title=\"Mechanical Acts of Kindness\" data-attachment-id=\"510\" data-type=\"image\" class=\"fg-thumb\"><span class=\"fg-image-wrap\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" class=\"skip-lazy fg-image\" data-src-fg=\"https:\/\/projects-old.etc.cmu.edu\/one-small-act\/wp-content\/uploads\/cache\/2019\/02\/Chain-Reaction-01\/4112070429.png\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns%3D%22http%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2F2000%2Fsvg%22%20width%3D%22640%22%20height%3D%22360%22%20viewBox%3D%220%200%20640%20360%22%3E%3C%2Fsvg%3E\" loading=\"eager\"><\/span><span class=\"fg-image-overlay\"><\/span><\/a><figcaption class=\"fg-caption\"><div class=\"fg-caption-inner\"><div class=\"fg-caption-title\">Mechanical Acts of Kindness<\/div><\/div><\/figcaption><\/figure><div class=\"fg-loader\"><\/div><\/div><div class=\"fg-item fg-type-image fg-idle\"><figure class=\"fg-item-inner\"><a href=\"https:\/\/projects-old.etc.cmu.edu\/one-small-act\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/KindnessGenerator4.png\" data-caption-title=\"Kindness Generator\" data-attachment-id=\"513\" data-type=\"image\" class=\"fg-thumb\"><span class=\"fg-image-wrap\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" class=\"skip-lazy fg-image\" data-src-fg=\"https:\/\/projects-old.etc.cmu.edu\/one-small-act\/wp-content\/uploads\/cache\/2019\/02\/KindnessGenerator4\/3314672022.png\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns%3D%22http%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2F2000%2Fsvg%22%20width%3D%22640%22%20height%3D%22360%22%20viewBox%3D%220%200%20640%20360%22%3E%3C%2Fsvg%3E\" loading=\"eager\"><\/span><span class=\"fg-image-overlay\"><\/span><\/a><figcaption class=\"fg-caption\"><div class=\"fg-caption-inner\"><div class=\"fg-caption-title\">Kindness Generator<\/div><\/div><\/figcaption><\/figure><div class=\"fg-loader\"><\/div><\/div>\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t<div class=\"fiv-ctrls\">\r\n\t\t\t<div class=\"fiv-prev\"><span>Prev<\/span><\/div>\r\n\t\t\t<label class=\"fiv-count\"><span class=\"fiv-count-current\">1<\/span>of<span class=\"fiv-count-total\">3<\/span><\/label>\r\n\t\t\t<div class=\"fiv-next\"><span>Next<\/span><\/div>\r\n\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t<\/div>\r\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>After pitching our concepts on Friday to the clients, we received unanimous support for the Giant Umbrella concept.
