Halloween 2010 - Unity3D on kids tv

Monkey leaves !Right whilst monkey goes to dry his eyes, Mr Fuzzikins and I are going on a trip to a place that isn’t scary, but extremely exciting… !

GFX IAN’S WORLD STING HERE?! !Sy Ladies and Gentlemen, Its almost Halloween so its time to say HALLO – IAN!!! Get It, Get It Hallo – Ian!!

CREW - RUBBISH !Ian enters the studio and greets Sy !

SFX - MUSE ‘Uprising’ Whooping/cheering from the floor !

Sy So Ian what have you got for us today? !Ian Sy using all this [Points at stuff on table] I am going to make a copy of you.. !Sy Ian are you sure your’e not Frankenstein…? Imagine if there was another me!! !

Shouts from Crew – Please NO!! !Sy (bit out out) Oi - What do you mean? It would be great having another me - Think of all the things I could do.. I could sit there playing on the computer whilst the other me does all the chores.

Ian No Sy.. This one can’t do your chores as this one will live in here as it’s an avatar. !

Ian points at his laptop !Sy What a weird blue alien in a film? !

Ian reacts Ian Using a digital camera I can take a picture of you, like this [Demo taking a picture] and using a development tool on the website called Evolver I can upload the picture I have taken and create a model of you. Like this one.. !

Split screen on Plasma Sy and Avatar !Sy That’s incredible. Is it hard to do? !

Recorded footage of Creating Sy using development tool !Ian No it’s all pretty simple, you upload your image and then you can create a body that matches yours using the development tool. I chose stick insect for you!! You can then change the hair, add clothes, like I have done with you Sy. !

Sy wearing a dress !Sy Reacts !Sy Once you have made that what can you do. !Ian The future of this could be amazing, firstly what I have done with your avatar is put you into a gaming environment using another piece of really cool professional development software

called Unity 3D.. !
