Final Photographs - I have tried to show a different perspective of detail within these images, rather than your typical product shot. This design has been made with the intention to be hung, which is what I have done in these shots, the model is hung in the air. This allowed for no reflections from the surface, this was important as I am using clear plastic which tends to act like a mirror.

Final Caritas Challenge Advert
Audio: Vocals - Kate Lyford
Sound Effects - Created by myself
Because I had to change a few scenes throughout the final stages of development. For my own sake in keeping on top of things and getting my timing correct to meet the brief. I constructed a Vocals timeline, helping me know when the various words are to be said in relation to the different frames.
The voice over is done by Kate Lyford (my sister) an 11 year old girl. I chose to use her voice instead of my own as I feel having a rather innocent child would entice more people into the challenge and the cause making them feel guilty if they turn a blind eye.
All other sound effects were recorded and edited by myself.
The kerFchair is a flat pack furniture designed by Boris Goldberg made from CNC-machined birch wood. Instead of bending laminated wood, he applied a different technique to achieve the same effect.
By using the kerfing technique, he avoided the laborious process of pressing the sheets of wood on a bending mold and clamping the together. Instead, the structure of the chair (the legs) are used as a bending tool.

Progress Update
As I am getting to the end of my stop motion animation. I have encountered a few problems. The biggest being that the clip following my timeline presented initially turning out to be longer than the required time frame.
I do not want to speed up a few scenes in order to met this requirement as pacing is a very important part of my clip. Therefore I have cut a few parts out including the date and sequence where I am focusing on the "Give it up" challenge.
I have now had to change my intentions. Rather than focusing solely on the Give it up challenge. I have cut this out and focused briefly on all four. By doing this I am cutting down the length of the clip and it is creating a more interesting clip, promoting The Caritas Challenge as a whole rather than one challenge.
Summary - The Joint
The Joint I have designed and crafted is a very simple and sleek design. I did not want to over complicate things, therefore I have paid close attention to the finer details and ensuring that everything I have done is for a functional reason as well as an aesthetic one.
Overall I am very pleased with my final outcome, I am happy with the craft of my final form and its overall aesthetic after a very vigorous iterative process.
Final Presentation Drawings
Planning for Presentation Drawings
I am looking to focus on the different components. Storyboard, Orthographic, graphic movement illustration and figure ground.
The solid black fill plays the part of a back drop to bring out the important features. But this is also an inverted plan view of my joint representing the angle of the form.
Final Three Photographs of Joint.
Final images for Joint.
Research and precedent images of knobs and various handles I looked at when designing the handle/knob for my joint. Because of my design I had to look at small scale objects that are still large enough to hold onto.
After coming back from the semi-formal presentation one point that I took out of this were that there was a very plain and 'boring' wooden panel on the top surface. Therefore I experimented in gluing the woods together. The spacing of this middle panel runs from the spacing in the sliding joint, continuing vertical line through to the horizontal surface. This has added another dynamic to the joint creating a more interesting design.
Investigation of various handles and how the human hand will interact with the design. These here a four different designs that I used in my iterated models.
Orthographic Projection for final model
After planning out my 'Final' model I then further went and constructed it in the workshop. After completing this I came across a few craft errors and due to there being an interior angle where I had designed for the users fingers to go it meant that I could not plain these edges so the rubber was flush with the wood. Because this was a large part of my model I had to ensure this was completed to perfection otherwise it would lose the effect. Therefore I took a few steps back and re-adjusted my initial design.
