Aim
To explore creative storytelling through a hybrid media form that integrates print design and augmented reality. This assignment challenges students to combine visual communication, narrative thinking, and interactive media tools.
Learning Outcomes
By the end of this assignment, students will be able to:
• Apply visual storytelling techniques using both physical and digital media
• Design for Augmented Reality (AR) using appropriate software
• Demonstrate conceptual development and critical thinking through theme interpretation
• Reflect on the affordances and limitations ofAR as a communicative medium
Task
Create a poster that comes to life through Augmented Reality. The printed side should visually represent your chosen theme, while the AR layer should enhance the message through animation, interaction, or audiovisual augmentation.
Theme
Please choose one of the following:
• Reimagining the Future
– Depict a speculative future of a place, culture, or tradition through AR.
• Cultural Whispers
– Celebrate a folk tale, traditional motif, or myth with motion and interactivity.
• For the Planet
– Use your poster to advocate for environmental awareness or climate action.
• Digital Poetics
– Translate a short poem or haiku into a multi-sensory AR experience.
• Lost & Found
– Highlight something “lost” in your culture, environment, or personal life—and revive it virtually.
Software
You are free to use any Adobe software for this project, with core options as follows:
Adobe Animate (Illustration and Animation)
Adobe Aero (Augmented Reality)
Option of other allowed platform. and software:
