h2. Design 1

This design is a basic form for children purely for *illiterate users*.  All the icons have affordances for what they represent, such as the typical open, new, save, and help icons.  If necessary, the user can click the '?' for help.  TheyThis will dolead nothim needto a lotvideo tutorial, or he can choose to turn on "Voice," which will say aloud what each icon/button is and how it can be used.

(Note:  The screen is not cluttered, and has limited functionality, to keep it simple.We are still trying to figure out how to authenticate/log in if the user is illiterate.)

h2. Design 2

!sketch 2.png|border=1,width=500!
This design is meant for choreographers who know what they are doing and want to jot down rough sketches really fast.  There are defaults already set, and this open-and-go user can quickly make his modifications and run.

The left-hand side shows previews of the finished formations.  The bottom panel contains all the editable features.  At the beginning, the stage will be a default rectangular stage, but if the user wants to spice things up, he can modify it.  He can add dancers and props by clicking the relevant icons on the rightmost corner or the panel.  For choreographers with multiple people going on and off the stage in sets, he can organize them using the middle icon.  This feature also allows him to place people in pre-conceived blocks (like a V, a circle, or a line).  

(Note:  I realized that if we were to have the video tutorial, it would be best to have it in the illiterate or even child design.)
