Unform Experiences, together with the British Red Cross, have developed Rania’s Journey, an immersive VR training film set in Iraq telling the story of Rania, a gender-based violence survivor. Created in both Arabic and English, the VR aims to support gender-based violence training and advocacy with a focus on a survivor-centred approach. The project has been awarded the Humanitarian Innovation Fund 2024-25 by ELHRA and was piloted in Iraq.

For this project, I contributed across several core areas of the immersive production pipeline. My work included 360° filmmaking within Unreal Engine, environment building, animation, Metahuman design and costuming, as well as motion capture data cleaning and integration. I helped shape the emotional and spatial flow of the 360 films embedded in the experience to support a survivor-centred approach, ensuring the virtual environments and character presence aligned with the project’s sensitive subject matter.
