Turn-around view of Environment 

The animation below is the overall turn-around view of the environment, at 00:00-00:45. At 00:45-02:15 is the close up walkthrough of the environment as well. The VR walk-through and interaction is also provided in this entry. 

The concept of my work, Discovering The War Unseen, is about how the individual can experience unearthing the aftermath of a story from the Christian Bible in a conceptual and creative way. The story is know as the War between Heaven and Hell, it is about a battle between Satan and Fallen Angels, against the angels from Heaven. This Virtual Reality experience will allow the viewer to discover the aftermath of this story. The story is mentioned in Revelation 12: 7-12 from the Christian Bible, and is also inspired by the Book of Enoch. The dragon and serpent skulls is inspired from the book of Revelation and Genesis. The weapons throughout the environment is from the angels that fought in the war. There is also boards that has sketches and information about the story. Throughout the environment there is equipment and other evidence that archeologists are discovering this scene. My goal is that this will create a virtual reality experience for the viewer to find archeological evidence of this story.
