As a Sony Content Innovation Summer Associate, I worked at the intersection of content and technology to develop next-generation interactive experiences using emerging technologies. Collaborating with a small team, I designed and prototyped an advanced content experience utilizing game engine technology (Unity/Unreal), VR/AR/MR, projection mapping, and advanced display/audio techniques to reimagine storytelling for Sony’s entertainment divisions.

​

Key Contributions:

• Developed an interactive prototype leveraging game engine technology to enhance narrative experiences for film, TV, or music.

• Explored VR/AR/MR and advanced content formats to create immersive experiences.

• Rapidly prototyped and iterated on ideas within a fast-paced 10-week program.

• Collaborated with Sony executives, USC faculty, and industry mentors to align innovation with business goals.

• Showcased a final project to a panel of Sony executives, demonstrating how emerging technology can transform entertainment.

​

Engineering & Art:

• Designed an interactive projection mapping game for the Ghostbusters IP.

• Programmed a proprietary projector to track objects and hand gestures with JavaScript.

• Implemented features such as recognizing depth and position of objects and the hand recognition so the user could interact with the media projected to the table. 

• Created 3D art for the experience using Maya and Cinema4D.

 

This role provided hands-on experience in technical art, game engine development, and interactive media, strengthening my ability to bridge creative and engineering disciplines in the entertainment industry.
