The side quest that I chose to do is a video animation in Adobe Photoshop. This was not a quick and easy side quest to complete, but in many ways, it was completely worth doing. The video animation is a map of Peninsula College that shows the trail for the Pirate Zombie Mud Run. I used a dot to follow the path showing the direction runners would travel and where to expect the zombie zones and obstacles. I used lighting, zoom, and audio to enhance interest and keep with the theme of this event.
I also took this opportunity to connect this fun event with educational purpose. Every aspect of this event was easily connected to STEAM (science, technology, engineering, arts, math). I felt it was important for the connection to be made as it gives more depth and reason for this fun-filled adventure. My hope is that this map will help runners become familiar with the path and keep in mind what all goes into creating these experiences.
My Goal is for the ASC and Peninsula College to be able to use this in future events to help gain interest in the event. The fun audio and graphics create a modern look and appeal that really brings the course to life before it even begins. Over all I expect this style of video animation map to help people feel more comfortable about navigating a 2 mile fun filled course, and to be more excited about it.
