WEEK 3 TECHNICAL PRODUCTION JOURNAL

Scifi Product/Robot/Mecha Concept Design and Idea Evolution

WEEK 3

Continuation of the last two weeks, here's initially a brainstorming idea process that we had before we went for sci fi.
We procured more ideas that came in. Examples of which is A glove that heals an object. Like whenever you wear it and touched something like a rusty spoon, it will come back good as new, more like a factory reset in computer terms. Refer to the designs I made at the last post for visual references. Next is an idea of mine which was also at that product sheet, It's called 'PortaOcculus' what it does is that it brings you to virtual reality when you wear it but cause disturbances around you cause you'll go nuts touching here and there. I made a rough story board for it

The story is all about a kid already wearing it, started off running in an alleyway. When He reached the road, xwings starts flying or whatever spaceships and started chasing the people off. So he ran with the crowd encountering different dangers. Then he got cornered by a trooper. He realized he's got a light saber and started chopping him off, then the camera cuts to him in reality holding a magazine slapping someone in front of him. He suddenly realized it's his mum holding the cable that cuts the connection . She was asking him to sleep and a bit pissy as the camera cuts in his room that's so messy. Then cut to the helmet in the foreground as his mum closes the door.
Sad to say this idea did not work! They said it was quite ambitious so we went on with the presentation. We thought of a shoe that changes as it adapts to its environment like say, you're in a desert, the foot wear will turn itself to sandals! We were suggested about REVERSE HUMOUR and something that's really witty!

SO IDEAS CAME BUT FINALLY, we came up with one. Like I was thinking why don't we go for a robot? that does what? maybe like your brother, to help you in need or something.

SO THE "BROBOT" IDEA came in to view and I quickly made some character designs for the idea.
I named the character Bobby, he's a small kid who's got a "bro" who kind of helps him to do different stuffs like clean his mess, help him tight corners with bullies, and etc.
