Group Meeting - 23/10

The group meeting today will allow us to progress with the project as we achieved the following:

- We decided to model a Joseph Evans Reliable Steam Engine (pics and info can be found here http://www.steampumps.net/JosephEvansReliable.html).

- It was decided that we would each be responsible for a part of project but if any one of us struggles, we can share the workload.

- I will be designing, modelling and texturing the main environment the machine will be in- probably a factory of some sort similar to the museum.
- Teresa will be building the governor on the engine.
- Dan will be mainly building the mechanicals of the engine, however we will divide the model up and work on different parts each.
- Kevin will storyboard the animation, design and add lighting, and animate the scene.

- We also discussed the presentation on Friday. Although I will not be present for this due to prior arrangements, as a group we feel there is enough to talk about as we know what we are doing, who is doing it and how we will present the product.

- Within the next week, we are all going to research the steam engine, prepare for the presentation, and I will begin designing the environment.
