Spike Island Digital Story Trail

• Concept Development: We kicked off by diving deep into Spike Island's history, identifying key narratives that could captivate visitors. Collaborating closely with historians, we selected stories that spanned the island’s multifaceted past.

• Technical Design: Next, we outlined the AR journey, focusing on user interaction and the technical specs. Our tech team got to work on developing an intuitive, seamless AR platform that could bring history to life without a hitch.

• Content Creation: Storytelling is where our heart is. We scripted engaging narratives, created lifelike 3D models of historical figures, and produced captivating soundscapes. Each element was designed to transport visitors back in time.

• User Experience Design: Keeping it user-friendly, we designed the AR experience to be accessible with just a smartphone. No heavy downloads, no fuss. We tested, tweaked, and ensured the experience was as immersive as it was easy to navigate.

• Launch and Feedback Loop: After launching the experience, we didn’t just call it a day. We set up a system to gather user feedback, making continuous improvements to ensure the experience remained top-notch.

1. Research and Collaboration: We started with thorough research and collaboration with Spike Island's team and local historians to ensure accuracy and depth in our storytelling.
2. Prototype and Test: Early on, we developed prototypes, testing them on-site to refine the user journey and iron out any technical kinks.
3. Iterative Design: Our process was highly iterative, responding quickly to feedback from both our team and initial user tests to enhance the experience.
4. Final Implementation: With everything polished, we rolled out the complete AR experience, ready for visitors to explore Spike Island in a whole new dimension.
