Magritte Total – VR Experience

Video Documentation:

Vimeo: https://vimeo.com/paulpolze/magrittetotal

Synopsis:

"Magritte Total" is an VR experience in memory of the surrealistic painter Rene Magritte. It is a possibilty to realize his visual world in VR. The user startet in a white room and is than guided throug different scenes. From a cineastic point of view the user can only look and listen arround without interacting with controller. That could be one way of the future of cinema.

Stills

Moodboard

Elements of Rene Magrittes images are the basic for further development in VR. The idea was not to copy his images exactly. The idea was to make it look like his images.

Screenshot MakeHuman

The character was easily designed in MakeHuman and exported as FBX to Unity. Some elements of the 3D modell has been changed or other added to. In Unity the 3D modell was rigged. The behaver of the Model is like a pup when gravity affects to.

Screenshot Code Emitter

To realize the idea of raining characters there was an own emitter system with some code created. The emitter was then duplicated. The Emitters are creating duplicated game object, which are falling on the ground. After a few minutes the game object are destroyed, because at the end there are many of these characters and his cost performance especially in VR. The user don't see the disappearing of the characters, because at this time he is up in sky above the clouds.

Screenshot Animation

The Steam-VR-Cam or in other words the point of view is animated. The animation starts when the user is entering a trigger zone in the first white room. Also, the characters are only falling, after entering a zone.

Screenshot 3D Sound

The sound in this project is spatial. Every sound from a object has a maximum distance value. There are also reverb zones to the scenes added. The falling apple needed code to make sound when colliding with ground.
