Want to see your 3D work appear in the real world?
Delivered by: Aura Studios — Josh McAvoy and Eoin Peel

On this beginner-friendly day you’ll learn to create an AR demo in Unreal Engine that can run on an iPad, learning the essentials step by step.
This hands-on skills session takes you through a complete, easy-to-follow workflow. Capturing a real world object on an iPad, bring it into Unreal, set up an AR scene that finds a flat surface, and tap to place your object.
We keep jargon to a minimum and focus on doing — so you leave with a short AR demo and a clear checklist to keep building afterwards.
Who it’s for:
Filmmakers, producers, artists and designers who have completed Unreal Engine 101 (or have equivalent basics). No coding required.
Access and follow-up
The venue is wheelchair accessible. A short recap and resource pack will be shared afterwards so you can continue at your own pace.
