OVERVIEW

 MISA, short for "Mock Interview Simulator Assistant," is a single-scenario VR behavioral interview training software designed for the PICO headset. This is our game design document submission for the 2023 PICO Dev Jam.

AWARD

 We won both 1st Place as well as the best Non-Game App category in the 2023 PICO Dev Jam.

MY ROLE

Development

 I contributed to conceptualizing the idea and its design. Additionally, I modeled both the office and home scenes and created short animations, such as the Umi animation(MISA’S creature form) in Blender. I then created UI mockups and colored all of the artwork. Lastly, I developed the presentation slides and used Premiere Pro to produce our video submission.

DEVELOPMENT STACK

 For this project we used Blender, Figma, Procreate, Mixamo, and Adobe Premire Pro

DETAILS

  MISA takes the form of a friendly entity that can transform into a human figure to present scenarios and evaluate users' responses to various interview questions. Our aim was to create a character that embodies the concept of adaptability, while also serving as a central point of user engagement. The choice of a jelly-like creature is symbolic of its capacity to transform, mirroring the user's journey of self-improvement through practice. Using AI, MISA provides dynamic interview questions and engages in real-time conversations, customizing its responses to user input for a more lifelike simulation. MISA is able to mimic both remote and in-person interview scenarios and uses a diverse set of trackers from the PICO interaction pack to assess non-verbal cues, including hand gestures and facial expressions.
