more"This case study reports on the use and development of video-prototype as a services design communication tool for product designers. This case study seeks to offer a first insight on how the tool of video-prototyping can be offer in an academic institution as part of the curriculum of a product design course. In particular, it explores the impact of video prototyping in product design students design projects and explains what are the tool reach and limitations.
The case study has been conducted in the Product design and the Product Design Engineering courses at a design school. Those courses have evolved to adapt to different social and productive influences from various eras. In recent years, their development has been heavily influenced by two primary factors: First, the growing awareness of the environmental impact of mass production and, secondly, the expansion in our society of service-based economy. For this reason, both courses have been implementing the teaching of video-prototyping as a communication tool.
