Project Overview
Objective
Project MU aimed to develop a mobile application, to collect and analyze various datasets and to set marketing strategies based on the contents provided by our client, the Museum of Japanese Colonial History in Korea.
The museum application encompasses exhibition translations, videos on the history of historical colonial buildings, museum mascots, and more. Various dashboards and short essays on colonial history were also created to aid visitors in understanding the colonial history of Korea.
Team Objective
The main goal of the Media Arts team was to learn how to use the basic essential design software and create an introductory video for one of the historical buildings built during the Colonial era.

Next Steps
- Collaboration and Expanded Content Creation
- Collaborative Projects: Engage in collaborative efforts with other teams or external creative groups. Collaborating with artists, historians, or content creators can add depth and creativity to future projects.
- Expand Content Categories: Diversify content creation by venturing into various types of videos such as interviews, short documentaries, or immersive experiences. This could involve exploring different historical eras, cultural narratives, or storytelling techniques.
- Engage in Multimedia Integration
- Interactive Experiences: Consider integrating multimedia elements within the application, such as interactive maps, augmented reality experiences, or virtual tours. This could offer users a more immersive and engaging exploration of historical sites and events.
- Virtual Reality (VR) Development: Leverage VR technologies to simulate historical environments or events, providing users with an immersive and educational experience within the museum application.
- Feedback and Iteration
- User Feedback Integration: Regularly collect feedback from application users to understand their experience and preferences. Use this feedback to iterate and improve upon existing features and content.
- Iterative Development: Embrace an iterative development process, allowing for continuous refinement of the application's content and functionality based on user feedback and team insights.
