Summary: | This paper sets out a concept for a seasonal virtual exhibition located inside the Barbacane Castle on the island of Pantelleria. The virtual exhibition involves the animation of the cultural heritage icons of the island such as the Imperial portraits of Caesar, Tito and Antonia Minore, and the Goddess Tanit, and the creation of a fictional 3-dimensional, animated character: an Eneolithic boy. The aim of the project is to educate tourists towards a more conscious tourism on the island through the use of storytelling, augmented reality and animation. |
