Video presentation

Here is a video representation of my project on Unity and also an example of the program running on my Android phone. The beginning portion is choppy, but the audio is fluent throughout the entirity of the video. The second portion of the video will be me running the app on my phone. This part is not choppy whatsoever. Video talks about the models I chose and explained the reasoning behind what I chose to present. I will also talk about the music that was used and how that also relates. Both models run simultaneously and individually. The part where I run my program begins at 4:55.

Explanation for models, music, and 8ball sayings

For the Classcube (Hawaii), I decided to make a Hawaiian themed cube. With this, I had several things to choose from in order to represent things from the island. Therefore, some animals like a turtle and dolphin would suffice in representing the animals of Hawaii. Some other things that take place on the island are activities like surfing! Hence, the surf board model was created. And lastly, when it comes to Hawaii, who isn't going to relax and enjoy the beach vibes? Therefore, lounge around all afternoon on a beach chair model that was grabbed from the web. All while resting underneath a coconut tree of course, which is my fifth model. All five models clearly representing what takes place there. Regarding the music, I decided to find a nice luau, ukulele type of sound, as this perfectly describes the music that's played there.

For the Mergecube (Texas), I wanted to incorporate a southern/western theme. What Texas reminds me of are cowboys, country music, BBQ, and much more that I have yet to experience. So, I went ahead of scouted some website that had models that would help best represent Texas for what it is. Therefore, I found a cowboy hat to mimic the cowboys, a pecan pie to describe Texas's delicasy (my friend from Lubbock, Texas mentioned this, so I guess it must be true lol), and the last model from the web, being a horse! Horses are mostly ridden in that state and after watching many John Wayne movies with my father, this only made sense to add it in. As for the models I created, cacti are all over that state! There aren't any in Chicago (unless you get them from Home Depot), so this was fitting in my opinion. And the second model I created for Texas is a guitar, emphasizing the traditional southern folk and country genre. And because I made this model, I think the best fitting music to go along with this model would be some nice country music, so I added this .wav snippet in.

As for the 8ball sayings, for the Classcube, we kept the classic traditional sayings there, so nothing was changed. As for the Mergecube, I went ahead and modernized some of the sayings that we hear nowadays. Some can be a sort of younger toned responses that people in my age group would say (that being teens - lower 20 year olds), something like "100%", signifying a assurance response, as well as a negatory response like "There's no way in hell".
