Activity Goals: Our task for this project was to create a multimedia character station. A space where the audience could get to know your character through a visual, audio, and tactile experience.  

Character Description: 

Jonathan Jacobson, 32, Male, 5’11, Green eyes, Black hair, right-handed, White, Ray Bans, Wears a copious amount of cologne. Suits Hugo Boss suits black, grey, and navy. Shoes, Giorgio Armani, Single, Lives in an above average apartment. He rides his bike to work. 

Dog: Max, Golden Doodle White 

Setting: Central Park New York, Upper West side, Dog Park, 

Examples: Mood boards, Spotify playlist, and WayGround quiz, vinyl record, bank statements, and $100 bills. 

As a group we decided to develop our character in a unique way rather than just straight up give the audience a written-out character description. We wanted to immerse our audience in the world of our character and let them figure out who our character was. Our goal was to make our station as interactive as possible. We worked together as a group to produce ideas and activiti.es that would immerse the audience into our character world. I believe the way ground quiz was an excellent way of giving the audience a chance to understand the character and also give them a full character description as well. 

Our group process in creating “Jonathan Jacobson” started with the basics. His overall look was important to us to get right. We wanted the audience to look at him and immediately know where he is from and what his job is. After that we made sure the dog we gave him fits his personality, job, and look. The interactive games and tactile representations were put together to just add and solidify the “Jonathan Jacobson” character. 

We did a great job with our creativity, communication, and results. Our goal was to give the audience a fun and interactive experience to learn about our character and we achieved that. There are definitely things we could have done better, but overall, I believe we did an excellent job.
