Was involved with competition this year, though we ended up being disqualified due to a paperwork error.

I can try to answer any questions you have.

I don't remember for sure, but I think the NDA requires me to stay mum on the project concept we worked on until the competition is completely over (even though we were disqualified). So for safety's sake, and since this is the Internet,I'll stay out of that.

As far as team formation...bit unorthodox. I'm currently at SCAD in the themed entertainment MFA - however there was supposed to be like a school wide team formation event, but a lot of teams ended up forming before the event. Long story short I ended up without a team because I hesitated.

However a group of my friends in the major had a team and eventually one of them had to bow out due to work commitments and I ended up joining that team as the writer.

The nice thing about being in the THED program is that there's a bunch of us with different backgrounds, so it's relatively easy to form a diverse team. We had an architect, an interior designer, a person with a diverse range of art and presentation development skills, and myself. It was a nifty little idea we had too - but you live you learn. Definitely make sure the proof of enrollment is extremely specific.

I understand the NDA, and should have known better to even ask...
Diversity of talents and skill, I would think, is a must!!
What a cool idea for SCAD to create the THED as a major...
Thanks for the info!

Is there anyone on here that has made it to the finals?!?!?!
