Abstract

Provided herein are exemplary embodiments directed to a method for creating digital media, including the placing the digital media in a computer graphics environment, the computer graphics environment further comprising visually perceptible elements appearing as real objects placed in a real world setting, and viewing the digital media when at the real world setting. Various exemplary systems include an augmented reality and virtual reality server connected to a network, and a client device connected to the network, the client device having an augmented reality and virtual reality application. Further exemplary systems include a body or motion sensor connected to the client device and/or an augmented reality and virtual reality interface connected to the client device.

Claims
