The environment idea I am going with (as you probably guessed from the current title) is a ruined castle in an autumn setting. The idea behind it is that tourism has taken a fantastic turn with the advent of more portable AR technology.
The year is 2020 and with augmented reality now available in a contact lens, we are able to build on top of the past without fear of losing history to modern structures. All across the world, ancient ruins are being brought back to life through the power of AR technology, giving visitors access to history via a futuristic medium.
After gathering reference material I wanted to first share the mood board I have come up with for this environment:
The idea will be to have the castle ruins as the base and the view will be of the visitor who is viewing the digital world built on top of the ruins through AR technology. I wanted to try and think outside of the box for this challenge and come up with something different from my original ideas, hopefully this is deemed to be within the brief. The digital sections of the castle will be distinct from the old using a different material. There will also be UI shown within the world as a HUD for the visitor which will accentuate the Sci Fi element to this environment.
