Master class No. 2
From idea to AR: create and publish your immersive project
A practical workshop: idea → source → digital object → publish → QR → preview → AR.
Goal
Walk the full path from an idea to a published AR object
Show the complete path:
- idea
- source material
- digital content
- publish
- QR
- preview
- AR
The main principle
You do not have to be a programmer to create your first immersive project.
Program
Seven practical parts — from choosing a format to a joint collection
- 10 min
Choose a format
Image, video, 3D, 360°, AR object, gallery, interactive scene.
- 15 min
Prepare the source material
Photos, drawings, models, video, archives, music — quality, rights, scale.
- 25 min
Create the digital object
Simple transformations — and how AI can help.
- 20 min
Publish the project in Avento
Title, cover, type, file — browser preview vs full AR in the app.
- 15 min
Place the object in the real world
A map pin, scale, and how a person meets the object.
- 10 min
Publish and share
Public page, QR, and the path into Avento AR.
- 10 min
Turn the experiment into a project
From one object to a series, a route, an exhibition, a city project.
10 minutes
1. Choose a format
We look at what an idea can become:
- Image
- Video
- Transparent video
- 3D model
- 360° image
- 360° video
- AR object
- Virtual gallery
- Interactive scene
Each participant chooses the format that fits their work best.
15 minutes
2. Prepare the source material
What you can use:
- A photo of a painting or object
- Your own drawing
- A photo of a craft piece
- An existing 3D model
- Video
- Archival photographs
- Your own music or voice
We discuss source quality, background, scale, copyright, and how to prepare the files.
25 minutes
3. Create the digital object
A few simple examples of turning source material into content:
Craft photo
Photo of a piece → 3D presentation
Archive photo
Archival photograph → historical scene
Person
A person → digital character
Drawing
A drawing → animated object
Separately we show how AI can help with images, ideas, a scenario, animation, and the project description.
20 minutes
4. Publish the project in Avento
We actually create an object and add:
Title
Description
Cover
Content type
3D / video / 360° / AR file
Location, if needed
In the browser
Content you can show immediately through a link or QR code.
In the Avento app
Full AR / Unity scenes with geolocation and interactivity.
15 minutes
5. Place the object in the real world
We choose a point. For example:
- This virtual sculpture stands next to the club building
- This historical character can be met near the old factory
We discuss scale, the object’s position, and how a person interacts with the space around it.
10 minutes
6. Publish and share
We get a public project page, create a QR code, and check the path:
- QR
- browser
- preview
- Open in Avento
- full AR
Where to place the QR:
- At an exhibition
- Next to a painting
- On the author’s business card
- On a poster
- On a festival stand
- On product packaging
- Right next to the real object

7. Turn the experiment into a project
The next level looks like this:
- one object
- a series
- a route
- an exhibition
- a city project
10 digital artists of Balashikha
A joint collection of local authors in the digital layer of the city.
Vanished Balashikha
Buildings and people of the past — in AR, on the real streets.
A project like this can already be shown to partners, clients, and festivals — and used as a base for a grant application.
Final assignment
Formulate your small project
Each participant writes their own formula:
- Author
- idea
- place
- format
- audience
The best works can be joined into the first shared collection.
