Sketching in the Third Dimension: VR Storyboarding with Gravity Sketch
Presenter: Jenna Stidwill
Virtual information worlds can be used to create engaging multisensory experiences. Join this workshop to learn how to prototype your own three-dimensional world in virtual reality using the 3D design platform Gravity Sketch and a Meta Quest headset in ways that engage spatial thinking. Explore how the libraries’ visual collections can be used to inspire virtual space design. Once finished, turn your prototype into a storyboard that communicates the experience. Good experiences do more than just put us in a space; they enhance our awareness of that space and the implications of our presence in it.
By the end of this workshop, you will be able to:
· Explain why spatial thinking matters and how it is engaged ethically in virtual environments.
· Create a 3D prototype of a virtual world using Gravity Sketch.
· Use the library’s visual collections to inspire 3D space design.
· Apply a workflow to reformat your prototype into a storyboard.
· Recognize the library supports available (equipment, training, collections, resources) for creating a virtual reality project.
Note: This is an interactive workshop where participants will engage in hands-on collaborative activities using a VR headset. Space is limited. Sign up early to reserve your spot.
