I got a contract to produce some exhibits for an event at a university. These exhibits included some touch screen information kiosks that would allow guests to find out more about the exhibits. I used some software that was kind of like turbocharged PowerPoint; it could do graphical things on the screen, it could run other applications, running on a Raspberry Pi it could handle the GPIO and blink lights, run motors, whatever.
I built the exhibits themselves and rigged up this framework, a student from the university was assigned to actually generate the content. Each of 4 exhibits was to get 3 or 4 video files each. From this student, I get about 5 emails that each contain two or three video files. There is no coherent naming scheme, “video1.mp4” “hector.mp4” “version 2.mp4”
So I call up this kid and ask her how I’m supposed to know which of these videos goes where in what exhibit. “Watch them and figure it out I guess.” Even if I had time for this, which I didn’t, that’s outside the scope of my contract. YOU organize them into something like “exhibit-1-video3.mp4” and I will put them in the places they’re supposed to go.
I feel for the professors that have to deal with the work these kids turn in.
