Client Project

This project was created from scratch, based on discussions of the initial idea with the client. The client team created all video assets for the project, and visual designs and image assets were provided by Mark Gilliland (http://vscreative NULL.com NULL.au/). I developed the systems for video playback, gesture navigation, image capture and annotation, text entry, and creation of the final PDF report after students complete the activities.

The client for this project was DEEPER RICHER (http://deeperricher NULL.com/).
