Digital Playground

An interactive gallery experience bringing five historical characters to life through film, digital storytelling and hands-on games.

We worked with Royal Armouries to create an engaging interactive experience introducing visitors to five fascinating characters from history.

Located at the gallery entrance, the exhibit brings together life-size filmed characters, interactive games and dramatic audiovisual content. Working with the museum's curators and reenactors, we recreated figures including a samurai, a sword maker, a WWII Special Operations Executive, Sir Hiram Maxim and one of Henry VIII's bodyguards.

A recurring takeover sequence transforms five screens with powerful imagery and sound design, drawing visitors into the experience. Combining film, animation and interactive storytelling, the exhibit offers an accessible and entertaining way to explore the characters, their roles and the weapons they used.

We’re a team in every sense of the word, and work together across disciplines without ego to find the very best solution. With relentless enthusiasm for the work and an excitement about realising a vision.
