Developed at Trigger, Released from June 2019 to September 2019
Exclusive on the iOS Regal Cinemas App

I co-lead a team of five through a successful development and deployment of the Toy Story 4 AR module over a three month period. Our team worked closely with the team at Pixar to ensure Woody, Buzz, Po Peep, Duke Caboom, Ducky and Bunny were all represented to their standard in Augmented Reality. I utilized JIRA to track development tasks with Agile development methodologies in running this project.

The Disney-Pixar Toy Story 4 AR module was built exclusively for the Regal Cinemas iOS App to celebrate the theatrical release. Users can place their favorite Toy Story characters in Augmented Reality. The app features Woody, Buzz, Forky, Bo Peep, Duke Caboom, Ducky and Bunny characters. Users can tap on the characters to cycle through their signature animations along with tapping the “Bonnie’s Coming!” button causing the Characters to collapse. Tapping that button again will bring the character back to life.

In addition, users can scan select Toy Story 4 movie posters. The Woody poster has unique 3D AR animations that the user can cycle through.
