Description
Participating in the conception of the overall exhibit design allowed our creative team to propose concepts where multimedia could best serve the content, which significantly influenced the scenography design and the finalized exhibition texts.
We designed interactive silhouettes where visitors learned about our different systems through lighting, sound, and animation. These multimedia integrations come to life through the following scenes:
Under a starry sky, we observe a simulation of a couple’s reproductive system leading up to the birth of a baby, all triggered by a simple button press. A detection system captures visitors’ pulses and triggers a heartbeat animation corresponding to their pulse. The nervous system of a young dancer is consistently stimulated through illuminated pathways activated by pressing a button.
We also created an interactive wall where visitors are called to take positive environmental action to create positive impact for personal health and that of the planet. We produced the exhibition’s video capsules, which feature scientists who share their fascinating work and their expertise, and we guided them throughout to effectively popularize the complex content. We produced funny and dynamic animations that explained the human body’s systems of defense and attack, and we conceptualized and produced touching audio capsules with the stories of people living with a chronic illness.
The technical success of the exhibit design is in its seamless integration of technology into the scenography. Visitors are unaware of just how much technology the exhibit contains. Our technical director worked closely with the in-house creative team, scenographer, and fabricator to ensure an unbroken design that did not interrupt the content but, instead, complemented them.
