Louisiana Old State Capitol AR Project

Layout Design/Illustration/2D and 3D Animation/Augmented Reality

Louisiana’s history has many events and secrets, and the Old State Capitol holds a fair amount that may not be known to many. While someone may go there and find interest in the displayed history, the question is, will they retain that information?

Exploring another way to garner interest by adding a level of interactivity through augmented reality was my solution. To conduct the necessary research, I visited the capitol and talked with people who worked there. I then sketched to explore how I could create dynamic illustrations that would also lead to the 2D and 3D animations that would be seen through a QR code. Since the experience would be most compatible with browsers on mobile devices, I used a web-based augmented reality solution.
