Gallery Walk Through

My Gallery

Student Art Center

Using Unity, students and art teachers will be able to integrate a variety of digital design tools and skill development to display student artwork in a virtual walk through format.

Virtual Showcase Sample Scene

Followed the instructions outlined in previous steps to add UI elements and scripts. Modified the script to remove the label information if the avatar moves away from the artwork.

Unity a taster

I intend to introduce Unity in my Visual Arts Studio module due to the necessity to have less physical presence in the classroom. I though creating a 3D gallery with unity would be a fantastic opportunity to let students showcase their previous work and learn new tools and new skills.
