After the UTS Information Day on the 29th of August 2009, Daniel Roperto, Greg Louden, Aram Dulyan and Christina Thee decided to video "Ball Fight"  after it was massive success on the day. Ball FIght was developed by Daniel Roperto and Greg Louden and is a game made for the research and development of Circle Twelve (former MERL) Diamond Touch Table technology.

Hopefully you will enjoy the movie as much as we had fun making it!
