Reflection
At the end of the day I learnt the value of team work. It is important to have a team that would be ready to work with you to achieve a set goal. I thank my friends and my lecturers for their enthusiasm especially when things were a little tough. The exhibition was successful and I was happy I could express my ideas in such a unique way.
Limitations
However I would like to point out some limitations such as cost and time. Some ideas had to be exempted from the final art work to save cost and to meet up with the dead line. Some materials such as the tint film did not give the desired reflective effect. In future when I wish too expand this project corrections would be made and other materials would be explored.

Final Year Project
The Exhibition
The exhibition was from the 8th to 10th of August. During the installation of my art work I had to stay over night at the venue to resolve minor short comings such as the positioning of the projectors. However amidst anxiety and nervousness the installation was made and on the exhibition day everything was ready.

Print outs and Merchandise
After constructing the box the next thing done was to make the necessary print outs and merchandise. I printed my infographic board and poster. The merchandise made were t-shirts and stickers.

The Box
The box had dimensions for 2 sides as 7x7 whiles its remaining 4 sides as 7x8 feet. It was assembled and constructed by the aid of my lecturers and friends. It was quiet a cumbersome task but we were able to fix it up.
The box was painted blue on the outside to give it a cool and attractive effect whiles the inside was pitch black and dark to aid in the projection and give it the required effect needed. The painting of the box was done by me and one of my course mates.

Preparation
After buying the needed materials I begun to work on my audio and visual. My audio was recorded in a studio and was of a narrative written by me. It had to be carefully composed which I did after so many adjustments so I could achieve my desired results.
The visual was of two parts the first was motion graphics which produced a dreamy / "high" effect. While the second of horror manipulated photos to show the downside of substance abuse. The visual was created in Adobe After Effects.

Final Year Project
Preparations.
My project idea was going to include both visual and audio which was going to by displayed in a box. The audio was in "3D" while the visuals followed the narration of the audio. Basically these two elements were combined to make the audience experience what a substance abuser goes through from the beginning till till the end when things get rough and scary.
Some the materials bought were wood 7x7 and 7x8, projectors, fog machine, hdmi cables, tint films, curtains and strobe lights.

Prototyping
After sketching my idea I further went on the make a small prototype. This was to identify what kind of materials would work and which alternate materials could be used to reduce cost and still have that desired effect.
