Prototype-ing

Prototype
I took quite some time to understand how prototype works.
However, we as a group decided on doing digital protype. I suggested on paper prototype but my groupmates feel that paper prototyping takes up a lot of time. So we decided to stick onto our digital prototype.
We got lost at first by deciding on how are we going to present the makeup idea as a prototype. An application? An online website?
We finally got through it by having our interaction design in a booth. Photo booth.
This is how the booth works.
First, there is a picture taken for the user. The photo would be on the touch screen screen. There are some makeup products to be chosen from. From eyeshadow to blusher to lipstick. The chosen colour by the user would be identified by this booth (technically) and shades of the chosen colour would be shown on the screen. These shades of colour would suit the user better. After every part of the makeup is chosen, the final outcome of the product will be a stick-on makeup mask.
I know it sounds funny but hey…it doesn’t have to be realistic…right? Anyway, the makeup mask will be stick onto the face, then peeled off.
Voila! The makeup is done!!!
How’s that!!
