Despite the success of a few novelties, attempts to add interactivity to cinema have largely been dismissed as disruptive and distracting by both filmmakers and audiences. In this project we created a method to add voluntary interactivity to a film, where audience participation is not necessary and does not disrupt the flow of the film. We used Unreal Engine 4, a modified screenplay, and original 3D models to achieve our goal. We believe we were successful in creating an innovative, and non-disruptive method of adding interactivity to a film.
