PROTOTYPING
Description
During this trimester I've focused mainly on gathering basic knowledge about programming. My approach has been practical and experimental and I've engaged JavaScript with the knowledge of HTML/CSS which I possessed before entering the course.
As a working and learning method I've tried realizing various simple ideas of programming, with a visual output as a result. Working this way has given more 'accessible' results within a short period of time. On one hand this has been very satisfactory, since your small beginner-scipts runs as you want them (with sometimes a little help from other students and teachers). On the other hand my learning outcome has amounted to the understanding of the 'basics of coding' and their practical application.
Media
Photos
- At least 2, Max 5.
- native resolution only (that is the highest resolution you have for your photo and whatever resolution if you make screencaps)
- PNG format
Video
optional unless the final outcome of the project, or one of its main components, is a video/film/animation.
- allowed containers/codecs combos:
- WebM (preferred):
- Video codec: VP8 (3-5 Mbps data rate)
- Audio codec: Vorbis (-q 6)
- Ogg:
- Video codec: Theora (3-5 Mbps data rate)
- Audio codec: Vorbis (-q 6)
- MP4:
- Video Codec: H.264 (3-5 Mbps data rate)
- Audio Codec: AAC (160kbps or 384kbps if 5.1) or MP3 (-V0 or -b 320)
- WebM (preferred):
- resolution: 720p if source >= 720p, native resolution otherwise, progressive.
- FPS: 24, 25, 30.
- Sample rate:
- 44.1kHz if source is 44.1kHz or 88.2kHz
- 48 kHz if source is 48kHz or 96kHz
- 44.1 kHz for everything else.
Audio
optional unless the final outcome of the project, or one of its main components, is a sound piece/track.
- allowed containers/codecs combos:
- Ogg: Vorbis (-q 6) preferred
- MPEG: MP3 (-V0 or -b 320)
- FLAC (-8)
- Sample rate:
- 44.1kHz if source is 44.1kHz or 88.2kHz
- 48 kHz if source is 48kHz or 96kHz
- 44.1 kHz for everything else.
- Do not transcode! For instance, if the sound generated is directly an MP3, do not re-encode it with the settings above or with a different codec. Only encode original uncompressed or lossless compressed sources.
Essay
Abstract and bibs/ref + link to PDF (PDF must be uploaded to wiki).
Use Steve's recommendations for abstract length and bibliographic style.
Additional Information
non optional
- One page itemised budget estimate
optional
- Project URL (if lives on an external site)
- extra wiki links (in case you have relevant notes/journals/documentation in your User: page, this is useful particularly if you have been asked to articulate further or refine your project during your assessment)
- Animated GIFs
