Task 2 : Interactive AR Application

For Task 2, we are required to create a AR filter based on the brand/services we did in Task 1. For the AR filter, I have decided to create a AR game filter. Mindcare has 3 mascot which represent depression, anxiety and depression. I create a filter where user can find out which Mindcare character they are.

Progress

I start by working on the illustration. For the game background, I created a gif animation so that it does not look static and boring. I created the gif in Adobe After Effect.

After creating the illustration, I start working on the filter in Spark AR. Since I am creating a game filter, I found a tutorial video that demonstrated how to create the game filter in Spark AR.

After completed the entire steps in Spark AR, I just found that my file is too big and it cause the filter to glitch when it is preview on the phone. I have to reduce the size of the image. I have to reimport the images and adjust the images again. Finally, after solving the issue, I was able to preview the filter on Instagram.

REFLECTIONS :

For this task, it is interesting as we get to create filter. Through this task, I was able to learn how to use Spark AR. It is a bit tricky and challenging at first but it is easy to use after watching some tutorial. Overall, it is an interesting task as I get to learn something new and explore.
