Huhugam Heritage Center
Chandler, AZ
Our team weaved together Films, Animations and Digital Interactives within the context of a Native Cultural History Museum to complete the story of a nation’s history, language and artifacts - Bridging the Gap Between the Past and the Present.
Visitors to the museum enter the main gallery along a large scale Video Wall Installation featuring an inspirational 8K film that showcases the Gila River as the lifeline of the community. Weaved in between rare artifacts is an emotional film about first contact narrating early contact with Europeans in the region utilizing voice over recording with edited paintings, photographs and custom illustrations.
Several interactives are integrated amongst the artifact displays. A Veterans Journal is a digital album of the community's veterans. Each veteran has their own chapter that showcases their military record, photos and letters. The Children’s Interactive features animations and gaming techniques to teach language and skills through experiencing a day in the life of a child living in a 1500s traditional Akimel O’otham village.
Digiscura Scope: Digital Footprint Design and Planning, Interactive Digital Content Production, Custom Film Production, Hardware Integration, Installation.
