Drama Studio lets K12 students tell their own stories, and share them with their class, family and friends for fun, for learning or both. Based on scientifically validated teaching methodologies and solid game design, Drama Studio is not just a fun game, but also a strong tool for language-, creative writing- and drama teachers.

Drama Studio is a browser-based 3D tool for writing and directing stage plays in a 3D Theatre. The product runs in WebGL and is optimized for running on low-performance Chromebooks and up and is delivered as a SaaS solution.

As Creative Director at Ugly Duckling Games my primary task was creating a consistent and immersive game world that motivates the students to immerse themselves completely in class. and did so with a solid focus on early user involvement and design workshops, paper prototyping and think-aloud testing involving students and teachers.

Besides ensuring a great user experience I also assumed roles such as; content production (3D, SFX, Animations, UI, lightning templates), world-building, interaction design and taking part in programming the front-end part of the application.

Availability

Drama Studio is live and is currently available in 90% of Danish schools and has had a great reception.

Drama Studio was nominated for Spilprisen in 2022 and The Gee Award in 2023.

Throughout the development, my role extended beyond coding to encompass various aspects such as product design, user experience (UX), defining visual style, world building, software development and overseeing the deployment on the iOS platform.
