The brief for the project states that the Festival will be running from St Mary le Wigford Church right up to the Cathedral quarter, whilst also stretching out onto the restaurant strip at Brayford Wharf.

The formation of my project idea needs to have a location along this strip in mind.

Location Idea 1

At this moment I feel that the strongest location for my project instalment will be the strip running alongside Brayford Wharf.

My reasoning behind this decision is due to the modern buildings that are present in this location.

From visiting this area in the past I am aware that some of the buildings present large flat sides, which would be ideal for the projection of a project such as this.

However, from the previous mocks created for the displaying of this project, I feel that night will offer the best experience. As the projection will be clearer to see.

Location Idea 2

After looking into the actual buildings present alongside the Brayford in more detail, its evident that none of them make perfect candidates for the projection of this project.

From this I have the idea that a tent or make shift bubble could be constructed to house all components of the project (projector, screen, iPad stations and motion tracker station)

This idea seems to be more achievable, purely because this way, the installation of the project could be placed anywhere along the track of the Festival.

This also means the installation tent could be placed in areas that attract a lot of visitors, leading to more people contributing to the project.
