When reflecting on the feeling of nervousness, I decided to explore the idea of the unknown and how impending danger can make us nervous.
As a physical representation, I decided to create a guillotine that stops the blade right before it comes down to the chopping block. I decided to create a covered guillotine to also surprise the user.
If I were to change anything about the process, I wish I changed the material and mechanics of the device. There are many ways to make the reveal more surprising and I wished I made incorporated that into the final product.
