Cinekid Festival – “Virtual Marionette”

A piece initially developed with the aim of determining how the usability of the Leap Motion device is affected when controlling a virtual marionette, it was picked up by the Cinekid Children’s Festival in Amsterdam as a new media exhibit.

Created using a custom built deferred renderer, models modelled and textured in Maya, and Bullet physics it explores a virtual spaceman floating around a moon. It was seen on display at the Cinekid Festival in Amsterdam, October 2013.
