This project was generated as part of the final for my visualizing experiences course during my Themed Experiences Masters program at UCF during the Spring 2025 semester. The goal of the assignment was to theme either 3 ride scenes or 3 queue scenes for a dark ride attraction using Revit 2025. The inital building layout was provided by our instructor, Kevin Doxey. The story that I developed for this assignment is as follows:

 

"Welcome to the home of one Earth's most powerful sorcerers: Merlin Barthalmus! Explore his collection of magical artifacts before meeting the famed wizard in his private study where he plans to show one of his most dangerous finds, the box of Pandora. Observe it with caution, for if its power were to be unleashed it would have disastrous consequences!"

The queue I developed was meant to be only part of Merlin's collection with props including the Sword of Excalibur, a nest of dragon's eggs, and an award (placeholder being a blue banner) that Merlin received for being the Wizard of the Year (six years in a row). The final scene shown is Merlin's private study where on his desk sits Pandora's box. This initial concept would have Merlin appear using a Pepper's Ghost effect, with the box eventually opening, acting as the inciting action that prompts Merlin to ask for your help to resecure the power of Pandora in the larger attraction.
