Overview

The Lighthouse was a project created in collaboration with Guillaume Boulliard who served as a creative technologist for the project. The purpose of the project was to better understand the intersection between the technology used by the project and creative practice.

In the project we created a tabletop roleplaying scenario in the form of a Scooby Doo-style mystery. The story takes place at night, which provides a low-light setting that naturally allows for artificial lights to play a major role in setting the ambience of the scene.

On this website you can find out more about:

1. The story and setting
2. Our setup
3. How we implemented specific scenes with video & tethering footage
4. Detailed participant feedback
5. Our take-away lessons

Here is a little taster gallery from our two sessions. Most of the video and photo content we captured is from the second session.
