ROLE
AD | Lead 3D Art | Immersive Experience Design
DESCRIPTION
As a user, I could go to build.practicalvr.com to quickly import created assets and utilize a library of over 10,000 assets. A phone or tablet can be used as a companion for the best experience. With Persistence, Spatial Intelligence/Mapping, voxel placement, Practical VR has provided fluid object orientation using point cloud technology. A user can spawn a holographic race-track for a remote control car, import slides for an immersive presentation, or prototype an app idea to collaborate with a friend or pitch to investors.

CAPTURE - IN GATEWAY
INFO GRAPHIC (MAPPING CONTEST)
I was tasked with creating compilation of abstract art to illustrate the data for the infographic. The application produced the key results for the mapping mode. The goal in holding a QA testing competition tested the strength and durability of the process in the application. Users uploaded their map locations, via the HoloLens, to the Practical VR server. The infographic contains real images from point cloud data collected through this mapping contest.
CONTEST PRIZES & TROPHIES
Promotions tasked me with building out replicas of the prizes and concepts of the trophies. I assembled a diorama for promotional use at Practical VR and edited the video.
