Immersive Experiences

I enjoy creating storylines and visitor journeys, through places already resonating with history, or inside a ‘black box’ transformed by scenics, graphics, sound and light into a theatrical, imaginary space
Odyssey Malta is now one of the island’s premier visitor attractions, integrated within the dramatic, Zaha Hadid-designed, Mercury Tower.
I developed the initial storylines, researched and wrote the scripts, transporting visitors on a Dark Walk through the wonders of Maltese archaeology into the succession of cultures which have left their mark over the centuries. It is a celebration of Malta’s dynamic history and the enchanting tapestry it offers to modern visitors today.
I directed the scenes of historical reconstruction and worked with the immersive design team and the creators of the Flying Ride to bring to life a story that includes the Maltese Falcon, the siege of 1565, scary monsters from the deep and WWII heroics. Not forgetting delicious Maltese pastizzi!

Historic Bodmin Jail in Cornwall has been transformed into a world-class visitor attraction. It features a brand new ‘Dark Walk’ and an immersive exhibition.
Using scenics, special effects and multi-screen projections we reveal Cornwall’s murky past and bring to life the wretched experience of inmates from the 18th and 19th Centuries.
I developed the original concept and storylines for the
‘Dark Walk’, researching characters and historical events featured in each zone.
I was part of Sarner’s Creative team defining the Visitor’s Journey, the core audiovisual sequences and the content of the Exhibition.

The Calvados region is renowned for its traditional Apple Brandy, the Spirit of Normandy. On the site of one of the most famous brands, Pere Magloire, we created a Visitor’s Centre and tasting experience.
Visitors follow the Apple’s magical journey from the orchards, through distillation to the ageing cellars and the final blending.
I developed the Visitors’ Journey/ storyline, researched and wrote all the scripts, directed most of the multi-projector films and liaised in French with the local teams during several years of development.
