Drivr

An interactive & immersive car chase experience. Control the speed of the scene and set the mood with your soundtrack of choice.

Drivr is an interactive film experience that allows the user to direct and edit their own action packed car chase scene. By utilizing a steering wheel, a gas pedal, and a brake pedal the user is able to control the speed and direction of the scene with familiar car components. The user has the ability to change the radio station as well which will play anything from classical, rock, hip-hop, or electronica.
