== Logistics ==
* Thursday, December 14th, 2017, 3:30pm, CCRMA Stage
* OPEN TO PUBLIC
* (please arrive at least 15 minutes before; arrive even earlier if you want to test the audio + video; there will be donuts)

== Final Project Deliverables ==
* DUE: by beginning of final presentation
* one or more '''screenshots''' that show the essence of your design
* a 2-3 high-quality, '''polished video''' documentation of your design
* a '''portfolio-style webpage''' (something you'd be proud to include in an job/school application!)
** NAME of product, your name(s)
** Idea / Premise (the big idea / the vision)
** Motivation (why do it?)
** The Thing (What is it?) and its Design
*** what is the final '''product'''?
*** what purpose does it serve? what is the experience of using it like?
*** what is the interface?  how to use it?
*** software architecture (what are the different components, under the hood?)
** What was your "measure of goodness" or "metric of success" as you designed this?

== Final Presentation ==
* duration 3-7 minutes (for 1-person projects); 5-10 (for 2- or more person teams)
* must include a polished demo (keeping in mind you are presenting the essence and experience of a '''product''', more than a tech-demo)
* might briefly address vision + motivation
* might briefly speak to your design
* you will also be graded by the fluidity and strength of your presentation, so really craft/optimize your demo + practice!
** less might be more, polish and distill your presentation to its essence
* as always, have fun with it!
