Designed and built as an interactive multi-media experience aimed at pre and prep school children, ‘Lunar’s Secret Forest’ tells the story of the critically endangered Leadbeater’s Possum, endemic to Victoria and the State’s faunal emblem.
Immersed in a ‘magical’ environment, where day turns to night and the ‘forest’ comes alive, ‘Lunar’ guides the audience who, using IR ‘torches’, explore the world of the Secret Forest on the interactive wall.
Alongside this custom-developed interactive technology, traditional craft activities and pledges to stop wildlife extinction, written on ‘leaves’ left to hang in the forest, enhance this entertaining experience.
