Sock Hop Secret
“This multi-linear narrative, immersive event allows guests to follow a specific actor as they engage with the interactive mystery storyline. It is a good-natured, altruistic town with a curious mystery brewing beneath the surface. Comparables include Westworld, Sleep No More, Galactic Star Cruiser, and Murder Mystery Dinner Theater.”
This writing sample came from a world building project that was part of Mary's Themed Experience Show Writing class at UCF. It includes a backstory, location breakdown, character list, and more!
Deep Ocean Encounters
“Dive with me into the ocean, where we can swim with dolphins, feed a stingray, and even pet a shark! Wait…pet a shark? That doesn’t sound very safe, but what if we could?.”
Deep Ocean Encounters is an immersive walk-through experience that Mary created as part of her UCF Master's program. You can find Key Art from this project under the Concept Art tab.
“Stumbling back in disbelief, the Professor couldn’t believe their eyes when a massive tentacle, covered in dozens of suction cups, emerged from the depths.”
