About this event
XR Prototyper is one of the most in-demand jobs in the design industry. From virtual reality games to augmented reality experiences to VR design applications (like ShapesXR), the ability to design these types of applications IN 3D space one of the most important steps in the UX/UI pipeline.
What better way to learn than from designers who recognize industry trends and master all of the latest XR designer tools. Aboodi Taha recently completed Meta-Ankh, a sci-fi story that merges the cyberworld with the ancient-physical world set in a utopian ancient Egyptian city. Players progress through the game by solving puzzles in three spaces: Cube, Pyramid, and Dome. Aboodi prototyped his experience in ShapesXR and will walk us through his entire process.
