Classwork and some homework!

We started off by discussing the project again - yet more new ideas;
- The stadium is old, from the 1930s
- Depression, Not many houses, factories starting up, lots of ppl escaping from troubles using sport, Bradman, Phar Lap

Today we looked at making guns in Second Life.
The purpose of the exercise is to learn about how objects can be deconstructed and reconstructed to suit our own needs. We learnt how to take the script, sound and bullet from one gun (popgun) and put them in our own, making small modifications when necessary.
Each class member then made their own gun and bullet. (See blogs for photos)

HOMEWORK

Each person must write a linear story based around our 1930s St Albans Stadium (500 words minimum). The story can take any form you choose, however spelling and grammar are important! Please use spell check, and feel free to email me draft versions if you would like any assistance. These stories will help us form a historical background for our project, and can be included on the project website.

The stories are due at the start of next weeks class (Friday September 21st) and can be posted to your blog(feel free to edit them continually online).
