The client Indiespring is producing a first person PC game called Cannon Blast and requires a 3D model to progress development and promote the game. The project aims to provide a 3D model that can be used in game production as well as promotional videos and posters.

The main goal is to define and produce a working 3D model that can later be animated and used in a game engine.
The document describes the Annotation Ontology (AO) which was developed based on Annotea for annotating different types of documents like text, images, audio, and video. AO defines different types of selectors to specify the context within documents being annotated. It also defines annotation types that are subclasses of the main Annotation type like Comment, Erratum, Question, and Explanation. AO supports grouping annotations into sets and combining annotation sets for specific documents. It aims to integrate with Annotea and SIOC standards for annotations.
1) Annotation can help provide the best up-to-date knowledge to end users while preserving the historical record by involving experts in the knowledge creation and extraction process through crowd-sourcing annotation and semantic annotation.
2) While annotation is a useful tool, the answer to effectively sharing knowledge is not simple, as there are still many open issues around representation of knowledge and integration of data from different sources.
3) The presenter's past work with clinical practice guidelines and knowledge representation highlighted the importance of interaction between domain experts and knowledge engineers in developing structured knowledge representations, as well as the need for more explicit semantics through use of ontologies and linked data.
