Using all our research collected previously, we chose to test people's reactions when something unusual was placed on the floor. We began by using tape on the floor to create a hopscotch. This was not successful as not a single person actually 'played' on the hopscotch, people either simply walked round it or straight over it. It was interesting when people walked round it as it suggested that people would react to something that was abnormal and purposely go out of their way to avoid it. A small number of people did actually ask us what we were doing, but I think this was mainly because they were just curious/being nosy! We also chose to challenge Frutiger's ideas on arrows/angles pointing up and down and chose to divide the steps at Liberty Park into two sections - up and down. Our aim was to see if people followed the correct route/set of stairs. This idea was definitely more successful than the other idea as people did seem to pay more attention to this, but I'm not sure whether this was just coincidence or even subliminal.
Overall, I feel our ideas could have worked better or been more successful if we had more time or better resources. Both the hopscotch and arrows idea could have been developed further and I think they could have produced a better outcome if this had been done. Also, filming for a longer period of time may have given us some better footage and more reactions.
