Project Santa
There are many Santa's Grottos to visit at Christmas time but many are not fit for a child who has special needs. It can be difficult to be in crowds, wait in long lines or find somewhere that is wheelchair accessible. This year I worked on project Santa at Welcombe Hills school that made meeting Santa a magical and stress free occasion.
A huge part of the project was making a grotto that was accessible, sensory and magical.
The main area of the experience was inside an immersive room. I designed and animated the inside of santa's grotto for a 270 degree experience.
The walk through included over 30 trees, candles, decorations and lots of snow.
I was also able to create some smaller projects that I could get the children involved with such as creating a reindeer, face cutouts and pompom snowballs.
Even the smallest of details were thought out. I designed a different label for each class so giving out presents was fun and easy.
None of this project would have been possible without the donations from many amazing companies.

It was a very rewarding project to work on and the children loved it!
Immersive Masquerade Ball
This 270 degree immersive image was created for a SEN school, to be used in drama activities. The image was created on the theme 18th century Italian masquerade ball. To fit into the play Romeo and Juliet. This image was then made interactive and sound was also added.
