The animation industry has helped develop an immersive and exclusive fine dining experience. To stand out from the market competition, innovations are important. Teams specializing in animation and culinary have specifically curated 'Maiden Voyage,' novel techniques with a 360° 2D animation for fine dining. A virtual reality headset or a head-mounted device allows restaurant guests to watch the animation while waiting for their meal between courses. The project's ultimate goal is to enhance the atmosphere of the elegant and formal restaurant setting through a virtual reality technique and narrative. The team intends to create a 2D environment concept design for a cruise ship from 1942 for ‘Maiden Voyage’. This environment design has to be distorted to align with the virtual reality blueprint on a 360° platform. Firstly, the research method starts with reviewing environment design literature. Next, analyze observations from actual cruises in 1942 and draw experiments with a 360° blueprint. Lastly, conduct surveys on fine dining with 360° techniques with environment design. The research output is the environment design sheet, which will contribute to the ‘Maiden Voyage’ animation to let the audiences immerse themselves in the mystery narrative and experience a cruise in 1942. This research will have practical applications for future studies on 360° implementation and assessment of animation, interdisciplinary projects, and the advancement of new animation techniques in educational settings, particularly within university-level animation courses.
