Problems Problems that occurred outside of planning was that Joe was absent for Monday’s sessions which limited the work that we did. This was tough as Joe created the foundations to the story. Another problem that we encountered was finding a way to get Edison into the Mesozoic era with Tesla. Also we had problems picking the period to use in the Mesozoic era.

Solutions We decided that Edison would jump into the back seat of the tesla car and hide to avoid being seen. A solution to Joe’s absence is that we did as much work as we could. We decided on using the Jurassic era as it was the most well known period which we felt would attract more people.
