Halo Halolens E3 Experience
This was a fun project to work on. It won a number of E3 awards and is the largest mixed media augmented reality project to date that I know of. Several large sci-fi sets of the UNSC Inifinity's debriefing room were built, totaling about the size of a football field on the E3 expo floor.
As senior artist on the project I worked on a number of the core elements in the experience. Some of those elements are shown here, such as the magic window, the globe, and a few others. I'm still digging up art I made for the project and looking for a full play through. If anyone knows where a video of the full play through is please hit me up!
This is the Globe I made for the Halo 5 Warzone Hololens E3 experience.
Lots of time was spent tuning and animating the hex fade in and out on the globe. It was a fun asset to make and animate.
This is a somewhat earlier version, with tighter hex's and an earlier version of the hex fade shader.
I remember specifically working on the globe while wearing the Hololens I would stick it the desk next to me in AR and tune the asset. Pretty cool.
The magic window was one of my favorite pieces. What isn't seen here is the animated mechanical shutter that opens up the window up to the loading dock bellow. This was overlaid on the physical set, and the effect worked really well.
Another set of holograms I made. The R and the B would rotate and pop up out of the table. Red and Blue!
On this scene I animated the flight path of the Pelicans and helped on some modeling.
E3 set underway.
The UNSC Eagle and other elements like it were modeled with depth and curvature to maximize stereoscopic coolness.
Here is an image of the final set. Our team made the wall paper and textures for the physical set too.
