Hello there fellow polycounters,
I would like to showcase our current semester-project here. We are a team of 6 students and our topic for this semester is "politics", which we decided to realize in VR. Everything is done from scratch.
Here is the result:

The Topic:
Given the topic "Politics" we decided to highlight corruption in connection with mass manipulation through the media in politics. It builds on the theory that Jack the ripper was a paid killer to spread fear and anti-semitism to support a political party at that time.
The Plot:
You open your eyes in a carriage on the streets of London in 1888, where the phenomena of Jack the Ripper strikes terror into people’s hearts...
The Team:
Tom (Me): Environment Artist ( First time as I have a programming background )
Katharina: Rigging and Animation
Julian: Character Artist
Jannic: Sound and Music
Alexander: Character Artist
Sebastian: Additional Environment Art
Since we do not have any concept-artists we rely on..
