Prompt 10: Approx 300 words Detail and reflect on the completion of your project and future outcomes for the work. 

This is my first time working on the 3D video shooting, and it is a challenging and complication work to all of us in the group. We don’t understand what it is the best version of this video. After the teachers watched this video and give us the feedbacks in the final screening, we are realized that how many aspects that we have to improve this project of the 360 video. Firstly, in the video of “State of the Heart” the two artists to define what it is art. This is a quite huge explanation of the work, and we didn’t present their artwork into the video which makes the video have nothing to explore of the two artists in the video. Secondly, we are using the 360vision to create the video and we didn’t utilize creating a space of the images also really important in the 3D video. I remember that when we are creating the 2D video we have to find the best angle or create the space to get the picture and shooting it. This rule also as important as 3D video. Thirdly, the entrain page should be designed different photo can access different artists stories. Rather than the story of the 3 artists are created in one video version. I had learned a lot of shooting and editing skill from this project “State of the Heart”

As for the future outcome, we hope that we can adjust the story of the artists, discover their highlight and find the best way to present it. The feedback from these two teachers is really helpful for this project. In addition, we will keep posting the information on Instagram, Facebook, Weibo, and WeChat account. Let the artist participate in our project to share their story about art.

One of the biggest electronic business enterprise in Chian, the Alibaba Group’s Taobao has no longer just a form of economic shopping that satisfies people who don’t want to go out for the shop. Even TaoBao is the most famous online shopping platform in China. However, the Alibaba Group is not satisfied with the current status and then they have studied the experience of simulating real shopping by using the 3D headset for people. When the people wearing the VR headset and remote control of VR, they can feel like they are in the real stores to enjoy the shopping experience. This is very convenient for the people, it can effectively view the product information, the price, and the functions. The model of the product makes people feel very real through the VR technology. It is also a good choice to experience shopping in the mall without leaving home. In my opinion, it can be a benefit for people who are suffering the infantile autism. They can also experience and enjoy shopping by using this new technique at home. This is undoubtedly an attractive shopping experience and ultimate pursuit for the engineer and sciences. I believe that China is constantly exploring and advancing for the development of high technology.

The reason why I am responding to the VR shopping experience technique of Alibaba enterprise is that I am interesting about those new technologies after working on this project of State od Heart. In my opinion, working in the new techniques should more careful and more patiently to discover the information through differences method. I hope that I can have a chance of working in the new media technology fileld in the future.
