Oceana: a VR Experience

Dr. Stella Sung wrote an Orchestral music piece to spread awareness of how noise pollution effects our oceans. This 13 minute long piece is meant to be played by symphonies and accompanied by visuals that paint a detailed picture of the story the music tells. Over three acts, the music reveals the majesty of our oceans and the dangers that threaten them.

Over the course of a semester, our small, student led team has created a prototype for Dr. Sung of a possible virtual reality experience that allows her target audience to see what they're hearing for a more impactful symphonic experience. Dr. Sung will be able to take our prototype to a wider audience and possibly create an even more in depth an interactive experience.

Our team has built our prototype using Unreal Engine and Wwise for the audio. We have utilized existing art assets and created our own to put this amazing prototype together.
