Dillon Nature Center
Amazing Plants of the Sandhills
Touchscreen Application

Education | Entertainment | Nature/Cultural Center

Balance Studios and Taylor Studios joined forces to create an interactive touchscreen application that allows visitors to experience nature in a way they never had before.

Balance conceptualized and created the characters and environments then used the stories of the amazing plants of the sandhills--a black eyed susan, cottonwood, blue stem, and the prickly pear to create the 2D animated stories

Visitors to the Education and Discovery Center have the chance to Take a Closer Look at Nature with the interactive exhibits and displays, including animated videos of the amazing plants of the sandhills surviving the harsh environment and an in depth look at the cycle of photosynthesis.
