Yuxin Cui

I am a digital media designer and VR developer interested in how immersive technology can support creative learning. My work combines visual communication, 3D environments and interactive design to make specialist knowledge easier to understand and experience.

My postgraduate project, Stagecraft in VR: A Lantern Focussing Training Prototype, explores how virtual reality can introduce the basic operation of a theatre profile lantern. In a virtual theatre environment, users can practise changing colour gels and gobos, adjusting the lantern angle, and observing how these changes affect the light on stage. The project aims to provide an accessible and low-risk way for students and beginners to become familiar with stage lighting before working with real equipment.

I enjoy creating simple and visually engaging experiences that connect art, technology and education.
