Historical documents provided to us by the Hampton History Museum\u2019s ship expert revealed the ship that transported the first enslaved Africans, the White Lion, was much smaller than we had expected. Knowledge of the design and journey provided us with meaningful information that guided the final 3D visuals, spatial audio components, and script.<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><b>What was the biggest challenge in producing this project?<\/b><br \/>\nOur biggest challenge was ensuring we told the story in a way that informed without triggering strong emotions. We worked closely with historians, researchers, and writers to craft an experience that allowed users to step into a virtual environment as a means to learn. Our goal was to build an experience that felt more like an immersive museum exhibit rather than a visceral recreation of the enslaved Africans\u2019 harrowing journey through the Middle Passage. This was a difficult story to tell as we wanted to treat the subject matter with reverence.<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><b>What is your favorite thing about this project?<\/b><br \/>\nWe worked with many amazing people during the production of this project. Each individual provided valuable contributions to the immersive experience that helped craft the final product. We appreciated our partners\u2019 insights and feedback throughout the development of the interactive project. 1619\u2019s augmented reality experience would not have been possible without their help.<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><b>Any advice for a news org or an individual starting in immersive storytelling?<\/b><br \/>\nBe flexible and plan for revisions to your project when working on a historical experience. We learned several times throughout the development of the interactive that adjustments needed to be made to the virtual ship\u2019s design which impacted the story\u2019s script and audio components. We recommend incorporating a period of polish into your development schedule to accommodate changes.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4><b><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"normal alignnone wp-image-9680\" src=\"https:\/\/journalists-org-develop.go-vip.co\/awards\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/10\/cfcf45ef-9e05-488a-8193-8540961b063a-apollo11_orbit_16x9.jpg?w=660\" alt=\"\" width=\"700\" height=\"395\" srcset=\"https:\/\/journalists-org-develop.go-vip.co\/awards\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/10\/cfcf45ef-9e05-488a-8193-8540961b063a-apollo11_orbit_16x9.jpg 660w, https:\/\/journalists-org-develop.go-vip.co\/awards\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/10\/cfcf45ef-9e05-488a-8193-8540961b063a-apollo11_orbit_16x9.jpg?resize=575,325 575w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" \/>50th Anniversary: \u201cApollo 11: America\u2019s Journey To The Moon\u201d | <\/b><b><i>Gannett<\/i><\/b><\/h4>\n<p><i>This augmented reality experience brings to life the story of the technology and mechanics behind the Apollo 11 mission to celebrate the 50th Anniversary of the historic event.

The experience we crafted could not be too technical as to alienate an audience, but it still needed to be detailed enough to fascinate. Our space expert Emre Kelly provided valuable insights into his audience that guided the tone and pacing of what we built.<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><b>What was the biggest challenge in producing this project?<\/b><br \/>\nOur goal to develop a live augmented reality broadcast of the historic mission provided many challenges. As we started to pull together resource materials for the project, we quickly realized that we needed to understand the science behind the mission to guide the project\u2019s animations and video companion for each event. We worked with one another to go through the 8-day mission logs down to the second to determine which events were the most relevant to the story and to our users. Once we had our animation timeline scripted, we worked with Apollo experts to ensure accuracy.<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><b>What is your favorite thing about this project?<\/b><br \/>\nA highlight of our project was the working with the Smithsonian to demo the interactive projects on July 20 during the 50th anniversary celebration of the Apollo 11 mission. We shared previews of the augmented reality projects and invited visitors to join us for the lunar landing live later that afternoon. At 3:17PM, the Smithsonian Castle\u2019s lobby was filled with families with their devices watching a 3D lunar module approaching the virtual surface of the Moon in augmented reality. I\u2019ll never forget the sound of mission beeps echoing throughout the large room.<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><b>Any advice for a news org or an individual starting in immersive storytelling?<\/b><br \/>\nDon\u2019t rush the development of a project and think beyond the one-hit gimmick.

While we push ourselves with new technologies, the real break-through is successfully democratizing these emerging technologies and putting them in the hands of often underserved\/underrepresented communities.

Our biggest challenge &#8212; working with youth that was busy with school and work &#8212; was the training to get them to understand what we were making.

But the piece I like best is the AR experience about the teddy bear. Once we heard the two different perspectives about this bear, we knew we wanted to pursue this story somehow.
