Frescobol Presentation

Alexander Jin

Frescobol is a game where two players hit a ball between each other with wooden racquets. The goal of the game is to keep the ball in the air for as long as possible. Frescobol is insanely popular in Brazil and in many other countries partly do to its simplicity and casual feel. 

To represent frescobol, I created a hand crank mechanism that moves a ball between to racquets. It does a pretty good job of capturing the non competitivness of the game and the repetitive motion in the gameplay.
