Ranatra Fusca Creativity Award

Problem 1 – Escape vroOM, Div III – Crestwood Secondary School
Imagine what happens when the lights go out at the museum. This team made their imaginations come to life by re-creating famous works of art appearing to hang in the Louvre. The artworks were so realistic that the judges were astonished when they came to life as costumed team members trying to escape the museum. The judges were also astounded by the realistic replication of Leonardo’s journal, especially the text written in Latin, backwards. Not only was the team’s phenomenal style, storyline and performance highly inventive, but the vehicle design showed risk-taking and creativity. One vehicle was stabilized on two wheels like a gyroscope as it traveled over a bridge forwards and backwards. Another accordion-style vehicle was powered pneumatically that flawlessly completed required tasks. The entire performance was perfectly integrated to make the audience and judges believe that they were also trapped in the museum and rooting for the famous works of art to escape. PHENOMENAL in every aspect!
