Interface XPO


We arrived at the Ellerslie convention centre seeing the Interface XPO signs at the door. Vivienne, Makayla, Darius, Mrs Lagitupu and I walked into the elevator and we went up. The editor of a magazine called Interface had invited us to the XPO to film the experience through our eyes His name was Greg Adams.

The main conference area was lined with black chairs. I filmed a heap of teachers filing into the room. Makayla set up the camera and the music stopped. A animation of a little boy dancing on the screen. It was the intro to the XPO. Greg Adams introduced himself and the event had started.

The technology stands were scattered everywhere. I was surprised that we could get interviews with most of the stands. My favourite stand was the 3D printer. A 3D printer uses plastic to create model objects. You can make anything with the printer. The more intricate the detail, the longer it takes to make the object.

The guy who was running it had a toy printing on the side. I scanned the table. There were heaps of creations made by the printer on the table. My favourite was a black skull as well as a little ball toy stuck inside a box. It looked really cool.

Thanks to Greg Adams, Mrs Lagitupu and Mrs Burt for letting us have the opportunity to go to the wonderful Interface XPO. It was a great experience to have and I am really grateful.
