Hands on Deck is a multiplayer VR sailing experience to deliver COVID-19 supplies to remote islands.
Developed by students in the spring 2020 AR/VR Capstone Class, at UW CSE (University of Washington's Allen School of Computer Science & Engineering).

Instructed and advised by Ira Kemelmacher and John Akers, the class has teams of 4 students develop an app for a VR, AR, or MR device over an intensive 10 weeks that also includes lectures on the history and recent developments in the field (Many of these lectures are also Reality Lab Lectures and featured in the lab's YouTube channel).

TALK ABSTRACT: In this talk, I will be sharing my industry experience of building virtual realities, from the inside out using VR creative tools such as Tilt Brush and Quill. Exploring the benefits of using these powerful tools to bring a whole new dimension to the way you create characters, worlds alongside it’s rapid visualisation, from pre-vis to production. I will talk about my personal journey into immersive mediums and the tips and tricks I have learnt along the way on all things VR worldbuilding, even including a live demonstration of Tilt Brush (if all goes well).
