Unity


Dear Ayana, Rebecca, Angela, Victoria, Anna, Anika-Marie, Serena, Max, Emily, Lauren P, Patricia and Lauren S!

I have been thinking hard on how can we create an interesting vehicle for producing (or presenting) your projects.

I came up with a pretty exciting idea (suggested by my friend Joe McKay).
The idea is using Unity game engine. This software is free for private users.
It is a software for creating games but it could be used for making simple walk-through environments, virtual galleries, animations etc.

It is really versatile. It is also an awesome opportunity for us to actually learn something brand new during this next month, that will stay on your resume (and hopefully in your brain) for the rest of your life. I posted below examples of unity projects applicable to all of your projects.

You could approach it on a very basic level and just use the provided tutorial to create a virtual gallery. You could go a step further and experiment with adding various media like video and some user interactivity. Finally, you cold put together a simple game, or game like environment. These is some programming involved but it is mostly downloadable… the video tutorials I linked for you are fantastic. You could start with something really easy and then keep adding on!
