Le Train de Charlevoix
The goal of this project was to introduce tourist train passengers on Le Train de Charlevoix to the culture and history of the Quebec region, without upstaging the 140km of breathtaking landscape. The experience enhances the gourmet on-board meal service with interactive tables and videos while the sound and light environment inside the train car changes in real time, according to the GPS position of the train.
Passengers can also view the video clips, photo galleries, and additional information on the train at any time using the tablets. In addition to 195 minutes of sonic landscapes and other audiovisual content, the team designed and produced the application and the ‘push’ technology for 144 tablets. The technology is discreetly integrated into the guest experience and magically lends a voice to the story of Le Train de Charlevoix.
ABB
Thinkwell Studio Montréal designed an interactive trade show booth that was created for the ABB Customer World Tour. The booth allowed presenters to showcase a range of products in one demonstration, with the aim of growing client relations, brand recognition, and company reach within the professional communities.
The design included audio-visual materials that can be projected onto a regular wall or presented in any interior context by which the client desires.
Thinkwell Studio Montréal would like to thank Trafic Design for their help designing and constructing the trade show booth.
Gulliver’s Gate
Located in Times Square, Gulliver’s Gate invites visitors to see the world in miniature, with landmarks from each region designed and created in their countries of origin. Thinkwell Studio Montréal created the interactive museum tools and the 3D exhibit of Niagara Falls as part of the Gulliver’s Gate exhibits. The team also created custom-designed RFID keys that unlock interactive content throughout the exhibits.
A model of Niagara Falls was constructed with a built-in photo booth. It invites guests to “jump into the falls,” incorporating snapshots from the adjacent photo booth into the video footage of cascading water. Each pixelated water droplet is made up of Gulliver’s Gate visitors.
