Overview
Stef and Dominic design the tool that makes all the AR experiences you see on Facebook, Instagram, Messenger, and Portal. Designing creative tools is hard, let alone one for an emerging technology – or indeed, something for something that doesn’t really exist yet.
In this session they’ll share why Facebook took a chance on building Spark AR Studio, how they went about it and the lessons they’ve learnt along the way. You’ll also get a chance to see some exciting experiences created in Spark AR from their diverse community of creators.
