This animation, developed in Unity, explores how the use of virtual reality through an entertainment lens, can explore the space between two and three-dimensional design, specifically the intersection of graphic novel and film.

The basis for this project was the original graphic novel as well as the 2009 film adaptation of Watchmen. Audio and most visual assets were pulled from those two sources, with supporting visual imagery pulled from various comic book media online.

Animated in Unity, the camera acts in place of the immersed user, walking through various theatrical set-like scenes as they gain clues as to what the plot is. The video ends with a clip from the movie, explaining the overarching plot of the story and what the other imagery were hinting at beforehand.

This animated project was made purely for educational, non-commercial purposes, and all of the images featured are pulled from either the original Watchmen graphic novel, or another published comic book.
