Blindside

I'm Kyra and I am passionate about all aspects of media production including film, animation, and new forms of storytelling. With a wide range of interests in the arts, I’m always eager to learn new things and promote collaboration. My heart lies in capturing the essence of life, and I am driven to share it through my photography and narratives. In my works, I aspire to promote person-to-person connection and highlight the beauty of life within a technology driven future.As an undergraduate at New York University, I am experimenting with creative coding and enhancing my storytelling through interactive and non-linear forms.Feel free to reach out for collabs, photography, or any other questions!kyrareilley@gmail.com

Red Thread of Fate

My adaption of the Red Thread of Fate folklore is an animated, interactive story that immerses the users into connecting with each other through their experience of reaching the end of the tale. By having two plays press buttons that slowly get closer, they represent the characters that also get gradually closer to each other, finding that love is based on choice rather than fate.

Bloodchild

As an adaptation of Octavia Butler's Bloodchild, this interactive prose story explores new structures in storytelling, while spiraling around truths of love in Butler's created world of Bloodchild. We can understand how love plays a bigger part through many different aspects of our lives and at its core holds us together to those around us.

All Roads

All Roads is a choose your own adventure game, exploring the concept of fate versus free will. While given the illusion of choice, All Roads reveals how our world is crafted so that the most ethical option is often a luxury, not a choice.
