Interactive Virtual Aquarium designed for a new exhibit at the Florida Aquarium September 2008.
Visitors to the Florida Aquarium can interact with (virtual) marine life while learning some interesting facts.

You can "summon" a whale, catch a jellyfish, scare some christmas tree worms, play with dolphins and sea turtles, and get caught up in a school of fish. Each creature has special scripted 'AI', and have some awareness of their environment. All of this blends to create a fun and immersive experience.

For this project I acted as a project/art director, contributed concept sketches, interaction designs, asset creation, sound design, and preformed game testing.
