3D School Shows
We offer an ever growing list of 3D shows, a number of which have associated workshops and digital media competitions. Each of our shows is presented live, using our own interactive 3D software... they are not films!
Clicking on the item title or the "more:" link, will take you to each shows main page. You will find information about the room requirements to host a 3D show here.
More than 25,000 students of all ages have taken part in one of our activities.

Space - the Solar System & Beyond
Gravity
GRAVITY Challenge
This is a full day activity for up to 30 students, in teams of 4 or 5. Includes the 3D Gravity show.
Target : P7 - S3 11yrs - 14yrs
Hands on experiments, roller coaster challenge, make a movie to explain an experiment and create an advert for the roller coaster. More:
Maxwell's Rainbow
Presenter lead realtime 3D Show.
Target : S3 - S6
Focuses on the electromagnetic spectrum and aims to follow the journey leading Maxwell to his theory that unified Magnetism, Electricity and Light. More :
3D Shows Currently In Development :
LHC 3D : It's All Down to Gravity
A new 3D school show being developed in conjunction with Dr Pete Edwards, Durham University. Will explain the science happening at the LHC, in a way that is suitable for S2 - S4.
BTBA & What does it mean to be Human?
This new 3D show takes audience involvement even further, by using voting pads to make decisions that determine what happens next. BTBA is a Biomedical show that explains how the body works by using both real medical 3D data and simplified 3D models. The show raises a number of ethical issues that are then discussed in the follow on debate and presentations can be submitted for the digital media competition. Target P7 - S1. More details soon.
We have 30 free days to allocate on a first come basis!
If you are interested in BTBA, and are a school located in Scotland, then please contact us as soon as possible!
Space II : Is there Anybody Out There?
The existing space show has been great for primary schools, but, we keep being asked if we can deliver it to a secondary school audience... so this new 3D show is designed to bridge that gap. It explores our solar system and the galaxy beyond
3D : Gravity
- Presenter lead realtime 3D Show, with voting system to enable audience interaction.
- Covers Newtonian Gravity, Life of Stars and a Current theory on Formation of the Universe.
- Aimed at : P7 - S3 / Yr 7 - Yr 10 / 11yrs - 14yrs
- Maximum of 40 pupils. ( 30 if used with Gravity Workshop )
Development part funded by the Science & Technology Facilities Council
Gravity, is a travelling school show that is presented using Stereoscopic Projection, to create a memorable immersive 3D experience, that brings the “Wow” factor into the classroom to promote learning and understanding.
There are some common misconceptions about gravity and the way it works. This 3D show tackles them through a series of virtual experiments, that explain the basics of Newton’s theory of Gravitation, why satellites orbit the earth, why astronauts float about, and much, much more.
We then explore the formation of the universe and the part that Gravity, Dark Matter and Dark Energy have played, using material from the Institute of Computational Cosmology, University of Durham.
The Final part of the show looks at the Life and Death of Stars. Including, what will happen to our Sun and what happens when you fall into a black hole.
A voting system is used throughout the show to pose questions and capture responses.
This show can also be combined with the Gravity Challenge Workshops.
Over 5,000 pupils have already enjoyed this show, and over 24,000 have taken part in Digital Learning Foundation activities..
