Title
Virtual exhibit design: The UX of student BFA design shows in Social VR
Description
Creating exhibitions in virtual reality offers unique user experience design challenges. This paper examines a case study of a past VR exhibit and discussions on future UX and usability research for VR exhibitions. Due to COVID19, student BFA shows across the country were canceled as most Universities went virtual. In an effort to create virtual student shows, many programs put together websites or zoom-style showcases. At Fresno State University, the Graphic Design BFA students put on a virtual show using Social Web VR. This paper examines the UX design of the VR show. Next, it examines the UX planning for the 2021 BFA show using social web-based VR. Finally, the paper concludes with plans for researching best practices for the UX of Virtual Exhibition Design moving forward. While social web-based VR offers great potential, designers must be careful to keep VR Exhibits human-centered and consider all participants' total user experience.
