Week 3 Homework

In the groups you formed in class, pick a location in or around MAGNET (try not to make it more than a couple minutes away). You will be creating a pitch for an AR story that either augments or subverts a story you find already in the place, or creates a story out of elements that you find there.

Document the place thoroughly with photos and videos. Create a storyboard describing the project you want to create. Either sketch or use Photoshop to depict what your augments will look like and how they will work. Think about different visual and audio elements you could add. Consider props that you could provide to also add to the experience. Remember to consider what role your user plays in the story, and what role their AR device will play as well.

Remember that you will actually be creating this experience in Unity as your next assignment. Consider what you feel capable of doing in Unity in 2 weeks and try to avoid exceeding that in your pitch. The kind of AR we will be using for this next assignment is marker-based, similar to Blippar, so think about what you can use as markers while you're creating your pitch.


Do not follow the syllabus for this week's homework. I've made a decision to go off syllabus so do not reference that for this week's homework. I'll be updating it before we next meet and get it in sync with the new schedule.
