INTRODUCTION:

“Magic You” is a virtual reality interactive narrative experience. It is a coming-of-age story about ADHD, with joys, anxieties, bitter memories, and growing pains, told in a hand-drawn, coloured-pencil aesthetic as a magical journey. The artwork hopes to present the experiences and imagination of ADHD patients to the audience in a poetic way and give the audience a better understanding of ADHD.

The interaction and artistic effects are designed according to the two main symptoms of ADHD – “Attention-deficit” and “hyperactivity”. After research and interviews with ADHD patients, each scene corresponds to a certain extent to certain conditions in different stages. Hand-tracking in the project is not only to complete ordinary grabbing, but also combines the paper plane-launching of interaction with climbing, exploring, and developing the vertical spatial dimension of VR. The paper planes can take the viewers to many places outside the main narrative line, encouraging the viewers to explore freely.
