Assignment

Your assignment this week is to create a one augmented reality illustration that contains 'a secret'. Draw and construct a new illustration that tells a story with (or in) augmented aeality.

Leverage your drawing skills, Photoshop & Illustrator, and Adobe Aero to create one new project.

Output

  • One standard/working resolution Photoshop file containing your flat composition, sketches or production parts.
  • One Adobe Aero project version of the same illustration where you have turned it into an augmented reality experience and or installation.

Note

  • You are free to Adobe Dimension and 3d objects from Dimension if you wish. It's not required.

Process

  • Look over the augmented reality inspiration from this week. Decide upon an illustration theme that tells a story (has a secret) and be fun in augmented reality.
  • Use Adobe Illustrator, Fresco, Procreate and/or Photoshop as layers or Smart Objects.
  • Use Adobe Aero on your iPhone/iPad or desktop to create a multi-part 3d version of your Illustration in augmented reality.
    • In class I showed you how to export your PSD for Aero. You might want to export all the parts separately and composite them in Aero by hand this week.
    • You might want to export your whole PSD as layers or you might want to export each layer separately (move them into independent files) and recompose in Aero.
  • Adding animation is optional, if you are interested you can add animated assets in Adobe Aero.
  • Once your Aero project is complete you can share it with the class as a link or QR code.
  • You can also record a movie of your AR file from within Aero mobile if you want to share that.
