Storytelling in VR.

The Homeless World Cup Foundation is a Scottish charity which operates through a network of more than 70 National Partners to support soccer programs around the world, and organizes an annual, international soccer tournament for national teams of men and women who are homeless. I was inspired to explore this foundation after speaking with a player at the Vancouver Street Soccer League, who participated in the Homeless World Cup for Canada in 2011. I've created a VR experience to tell the stories of 3 players -- Reena Panchal of Team India, Horacio Garcia of Team Argentina, and Sylus Otis Liwindo of Team Malawi.

Curve Ball.

The story I chose to convey through this VR experience is about how the Western media doesn’t credit Serena Williams and Venus Williams for their accomplishments in Tennis compared to their white male counterparts. I chose to do this story and convey it like the way I did because POC (people of color) and especially WOC (women of color) are silenced and looked down upon to this day. We see this a lot in sports too. Especially with the ones where men are the most dominant and get paid more; like soccer and tennis.

Roller Derby: Bringing Power to Femininity

A virtual-reality landscape exploring how roller derby brings power to femininity: placing viewers inside the heart of the sport and allowing them to interact with pieces of the environment that represent this empowerment. Not only is roller derby empowering on its own, but it is particularly fascinating as it redefines what it means to be a female athlete. Femininity is appropriated and redefined as something powerful and tough. The players wear skirts, paint their faces with theatrical makeup, tie up their hair in pigtails -- all things typically associated with traditional interpretations of femininity (as something delicate, innocent, beautiful, and vulnerable). Instead, the players take these things and make them representative of a different character: girls who are independent, assertive, aggressive, self-confident, active, stable, confident, disciplined.

This project is about creating VR experience that encourages positive social change in the field of soccer. This VR is for little soccer players who have limited space to play soccer. With this VR, viewers not only experience immersive feelings but also, viewers can experience teleportation by looking at interactive soccer balls. Each planet contains relevant quotes from Little Prince that might be meaningful and helpful for little soccer players. My ultimate goal in this project is to give positive and meaningful experience for little soccer players.
