Update 4: The Aftermath

The demo went really well actually.

Tons of good feedback, tons of positive reception for the message and the direction, and tons of great ideas on how to proceed.

Decision Tree Game

Many people agreed that the message was an important one, either as a snapshot of the progress RE Tech has made in the past 5 years, or as a starter material for anyone interested in financial literacy or home buying.

Good ideas on how to solve the problem of delivering large content in an entertaining manner:

  1. Break down the message into a series of videos
  2. Make a game/interactive version where the player can go through different options of buying a home
  3. Combination of videos and games

This was split pretty evenly among the people who demoed the demo, and funnily enough is a pretty accurate representation of the demographic of the audience (pretty even split between filmmakers, game developers, and inter-sectional media artists).

While I have yet to decide on one of the options, this is a great start in thinking about breaking down large content.

Also feeling hyped that this is a project many people were supportive of, and saw the value in!
