[the installation on exhibit at the Boston Science museum]

Star Wars: Where Science Meets Imagination - Living on Tatooine:

This installation was part of a larger exhibit at the Science Museum in Boston and is currently traveling through the United States. "Living on Tatooine" shows various scenarios on Tatooine, the homeworld of Luke Skywalker. Visitors of the exhibit can influence these scenarios with an augmented reality interface to accomplish certain tasks. Tasks include defending a Jawa camp, managing a spaceport and maintaining a moisture farm.
My responsibility in this project was modelling and animating the 3D content, which I did in 3D Studio Max 7. The programming was done by Graham Aldridge and the concept and creative supervision came from Nick Hedley and Ed Rodley.
