Chip Testing Machine

For my first 3rd year project, we were asked to approach a company within the industry that we were hoping to enter and ask them for a brief to complete. I approached Propshop Modelmakers Ltd, I have been on work experience with them a couple of times and I really enjoy their working environment. They gave me a dummy brief, one in which they had just completed themselves for the McCain’s ‘Chip Perfection’ advertisement campaign. I was asked to design and build a machine to test the crispiness of a chip, the chip must not be hurt, or feel in danger and I must use materials sympathetic to the farmyard theme. I also had to create my own storyboard to show how my interpretation of the advert would run.

 

Unfortunately, it is not quite finished, the image below shows the machine at its most complete followed by a few work in progress images. This was also my first attempt of using a green screen, which I think needs a bit of work :-).
