Con Vida Proof of Concept - Bringing Color to Life with AR & Immersive Tech
Story Scenario
At PRAKRIA, we are always stretching the limits of what brand experiences can be. With Con Vida, a sketch pen brand from our proof-of-concept slate, we set out to illustrate the intersection of different realms of color, technology, and creative imagination. The goal: to take a static pack full of color and bring it to life in an innovative way through new media forms like AR, VR, animation, and playful, interactive storytelling. While Con Vida was artificial in the sense that it was not a real market launch, it was an experimental playground. We wanted to demonstrate that packaging could be more than just a wrapper; it could be a portal to fully immersive realities. The balancing act was engaging the audience in a magical way that required the combination of augmented reality app development, animated video development, virtual reality development, and interactive tech, all in a small, delightful experience.
The Challenges
With Con Vida, PRAKRIA set out to prove that even something as simple as a pack of sketch pens can be turned into a living experience where design, technology, and storytelling leap off the packaging.
The main task at hand was to transform a flat, static product into an interactive world of color and motion, using AR, VR, and animation as storytelling tools rather than novelties. We needed to show how packaging can be a portal, not just a container, to a playful and immersive brand experience.
It was a balancing act of creativity and technology: it had to feel magical and delightful, but needed to be lightweight, stable, and performant on mobile.
As proof of concept, Con Vida needed to demonstrate the studio's ability in fusing AR/VR development, animation, and game-thinking together into a cohesive whole-the making of not a tech demo, but a living, breathing story.
The goal was to create a small, self-contained experience that captures imagination, showing PRAKRIA's creative technology capabilities to future clients.
The challenge was to paint beyond the page, to prove that through AR and animation, color could transcend packaging and live in the user's world.
The Strategy
Initially, we developed a fresh, playful package for Con Vida—something you could see before you engaged with the tech layer. Then we translated it to a 3D model environment (although AR implies it.) This way, it would work well with the augmented overlay and animation.
Packaging as Portal

AR Activation
Users would just use the app to scan the pack, and then the magic happens: colors come to life from the packaging, drawings animate, and the design is now a living frame. We created this as an augmented reality app development exercise, a pack-to-screen translation of brand personality.

Animation & Motion
To animate that burst, we incorporated animated video creation techniques in the AR layer: playful flows of color, sketch lines moving, and petals and pigments dancing in space. In effect, the physical pack becomes an animation stage. In the best expansion scenarios we'd examined, we also mapped how game development or mobile game development elements could fit into this world—for example, to enable users to "paint" virtual illustrations or unlock layers of augmentations. Here's where game development services think edge in: interactive experience, more than just passive viewing.
Although Con Vida's proof of concept focused on AR, the underlying architecture we developed could also be used to extend to either virtual reality development or completely immersive VR development experiences. The same assets could also be used as portals within the headsets to literally let the user step inside the colored world. We also foresaw a future development path for AR/VR, or AR/VR app development, that develops this concept in richer ways.
VR & Beyond

The Creative Execution
We created the AR pack experience for scanning layers to animate or react in animated layers, particle effects, or motion graphics, all designed to be fun and magical.
The animations are lightweight but expressive; they generate and track really well on mobile devices and are optimized for fewer frames to retain the magic.
The structure was modular, so adding new layers (mini games, drawing interactions, VR scenes) would all be possible without rebuilding the project or the base layer.
We mapped out possible extension routes in line with future development for mobile games or even virtual reality spin-offs.
The Result
Despite Con Vida being a concept rather than an actual product, it delivered on its mission superbly:
It became an exemplar of what animated video creation + AR + design can do.
It demonstrated how packaging can surpass its physical limitations and serve as a conduit for experience.
It established PRAKRIA as a team that is looking forward to handling game dev services, AR/VR dev, and immersive app work-not only static design.
For clients considering our capabilities, Con Vida makes the conversation easy: “What if your product could be animated?”
Why This Matters
Con Vida is evidence that packaging does not need to remain on the shelf; it can leap into your phone, your space, your imagination.
Augmented reality app development is justified when it meaningfully changes the way people view a product.
Backing this up with animated video creation adds movement and life to what would otherwise be flat.
Looking ahead, you can layer in game development, VR development, and full AR VR app development to enhance the experience.
A proof of concept like this shows how game development services and immersive tech can provide an elevated storytelling experience to a brand.
