Thoughts on Project 2

For project two, I was thinking about telling the story of my first few weeks in Morgantown (an invented fantasy, full of dragons, Clark Hall of Chemistry wreathed in flame, etc) through the point of view of a hat I obtained early on the first day of school. Mystery will surround the hat and its origin, but the sequence will proceed towards knowing where it has come from almost as if the mystery of the hat is what is really important--and since the point of view is from the hat, it will almost be an amnesia type situation. I'm thinking of using a lot of Chicago as background music and the hat will have an audible voice most likely with a girl and a guy speaking at once so the gender of the hat cannot be determined until nearer the end. The details I'm not quite sure about because I haven't started playing with the software yet, but I think I'll probably use a combination of several options, including Google Maps (which might serve as my base?), the GIMP, and luckily, my roommate has Acid Pro, so I'll likely use that to edit my sound.
