Immersive Media

Immersive Media

Student Project by Ginevra D’Agustino

In this course, students develop independent projects in immersive media as it relates to architectural design and spatial storytelling. We examine technologies of immersion including VR/AR, web-based experiences, sound installations, and virtual production workflows. We explore the field of immersive media through readings, precedent artwork, and hands-on experience with production tools. We specifically focus on the production pipelines that use real-time simulations and game engines. Students were encouraged to work on the aspects of their studio projects and thesis. The workshop provides a studio environment for the students to collaborate and provide feedback to each other.
