SKETCH OUTLIER has been awarded a DYCP grant through Arts Council National Lottery Project Grants for a project which will explore the positive impact of Games Engine visualisation and simulation on Exhibition design both from a project workflow as-well as a client facing perspective.
About The Project
Sketch outliers’ ambition is to explore the use of Games engine technology to help produce dynamic visual simulations, work in a more time efficient manner and optimise project work flows.
There is a turning point happening in how cultural institutions and the attraction industry are looking to represent themselves and one of the key vehicles being used to do this is Web3 which will allow for more virtual immersive experiences online. Cultural institutions will require more virtual components to be available online to help promote future exhibitions and this will be a key marketing touchpoint for guests’ pre and post visitation. Particular Games Engines are already primed with assets and tools which can directly generate content within Web 3 platforms. This is the perfect time to make design work adaptable and in sync with such new and vastly developing technology.
SKETCH OUTLIER would like to extend their gratitude to Arts Council National Lottery Project Grants for supporting this ambitious but worthwhile programme of study.
