Project 3 Rationale


For this project, I looked to capture the event or moement in sport, in my case soccer, where one team scores at the very last moment in most cases either to win a match, or at other times to win a cup/trophy/etc. The project is basically a diary of sorts, something that can be built upon and used again and again. The idea of it is for every memorable goal scored for a win lets say, the user would put a golden peg on the miniature pitch to represent the goal scored from whicever position of the pitch.

This is interesting but is there a market for it?and where does it live?
It kinda reminds me of those giant tofu plush toys they have in Chinatown

Hey ray
I like your concept here as i think it is a playful and interactive way of recording a memory. Aesthetically it looks a bit messy so maybe there is a way that you could make it look neater perhaps a confining container. also maybe if there is a place you could write the goal scorers name so other people would know which goal you had displayed.
goodwork

hi Ray. This is really interesting and playful concept, and it is new way of capturing active time. However,It looks little bit messy.. so I personally recommend to have good quality of final design. Anyway well done Ray!

An interesting idea for all those football fans out there.

The actual model is a bit hard to grasp but i'm sure with a bit of working it could be made much neater.

The writing of scores and players with either tags on the pins or the box being made with whiteboard material could be an idea. As it is it would be hard to know which pin means what.
