Overview
With the tiger mascot that our team has created for the museum, we have further developed the mascot into an animation video. The mascot animation would serve as a virtual docent for users who are using the audio tour feature on the museum’s mobile application, and would also serve as a guide that explains what to expect from the audio tours.
The animation of the mascot was created using the After Effects program, and various gestures were given to the tiger in order for it to resemble a real docent.
Mascot Demonstration
Below is the demonstration of the introduction to the audio tour of the permanent exhibition at the museum that is to be included in the mobile application of the museum.
In the future, video animation for each of the sections of the permanent exhibition at the museum will be developed and embedded into the museum application.
Animation on the Mobile Application
On the mobile application, the virtual audio tour will look like the following video.
The animation will serve as a virtual docent that introduces what the users are to expect from the audio tours and follows along each section of the permanent exhibition of the museum with the user.
