OVERVIEW

Teaser Trailer

Pedestrian Safety Simulator was made as a final project for the Media Arts and Design class (Spring 2023, Crystal Beiersdorfer) at the University of Chicago. It was intended as a satirical response to a "Pedestrian Safety Week" initiative by the University administration, aiming to point out the absurdity of blaming students for getting hit by reckless drivers.

I worked on Pedestrian Safety Simulator with Isaac Berman. I created all of the 2D and 3D assets for the project. We worked on the project for two weeks for the class submission and spent an additional week of work on it afterward polishing and adding additional features.
