Solution
Create an interactive virtual reality experience.
My contribution to the Nantucket immersive experience was rigging, animating, texturing, and placing figures within the 360° virtual reality scene.
Beginning the process, I mapped out where the figures will be placed within the scene.
Pre-existing figure assets were textured in Cinema 4D and placed into Mixamo to be rigged and animated.
Figures were placed within specific locations that were mapped out.
