DYCP Final Activity Report

August 2024

This was my final month of my Arts Council funded project ‘Developing Your Creative Practice’. I am really pleased with all the opportunities I’ve had and with the outcomes and skills I developed. These included a short 360 film which used 3D scanned stop motion puppets. As well, I was able to explore editing softwares Blender, an open source 3D computer generated technology (CG), and Unity, a 3D game engine allowing one to manage complex tools including computer generated technology (CGI) and augmented reality immersive experiences.

I will be using these skills in the future to develop my ideas for an immersive extended realities installation. To begin this I will start to write an Arts Council England Project Grant bid to create a pilot installation experience. I plan to gain feedback for this from collaborating partners such as healthcare professionals and digital scientific researchers already using extended reality technologies.
