The Imperial War Museum, London will re-open to the public this Saturday having undergone a £40m transformation and has devoted a gallery to the First World War in this, its centenary year.
ISO have been lead AV and interactive designers for the Gallery and have produced 17 new media installations. Lead by Creative Director Mark Breslin we worked closely with the IWM’s curators and the exhibition designers at Casson Mann to present IWM’s extensive physical and digital collections of war at home and the Western Front to dramatic and poignant effect.
Our work includes large scale atmospheric film installations, interactive tables and strategy games. A whole host of techniques have been deployed including location filming, live action performance capture, motion sensing, development of bespoke software frameworks, 2D and 3D animation and visual effects.
