For my first AR module assignment, I decided to create a poster inspired by a marine theme, specifically mermaids.
I quickly settled on the theme for my poster. My favorite mythical creatures have always been mermaids, especially sirens, so I was eager to create something related to these mystical ocean beings.
For the poster and animation, I used Photoshop. It was my first time using Photoshop for animation, and I’m quite pleased with the result. I didn’t face any difficulties creating the animation, but I did spend a considerable amount of time searching for all the necessary images with a consistent marine theme.
My objective was to create a poster reminiscent of the cover of an old fairy tale book or stories about mermaids, and I believe I accomplished that goal!

When uploading the animation to EyeJack, I also decided to add a siren song to enhance the atmosphere of my poster.
I really enjoyed working on this project, and I found it very fulfilling. I’m sure that I will continue to experiment with animation and AR, improving my skills in this area of visual media!
