It's nearly there: setting up the gallery, finalizing the mobile app, and sending bookmarks to the print shop.
1 week before the Open Day:
The @101_survive was hacked - the account was used to send multiple messages to people around the world. Instagram detected and deactivate @101_survive
2 days before the final walk-through day:
Opened a new account @101.survive with no captions at all for posts.
Came up with the idea of performing the mobile app via a 3D structure. Knew that it might be abandoned at some points but if it worked, it would have been the best way to layout the prototype in less space.
on the final
walk-through day:
The structure of the mobile app finally worked and was approved!
The big poster was up, all bookmarks were pinned, and 3 suitcases were laid on pedestals equally.
