Inspiration
As this month is October also known as the month of Halloween, we thought of making a Snapchat lens based on Halloween theme that people would be able to enjoy & share with their friends.
What it does
This Snapchat lens replaces users' face with a skeleton with fire in its eyes, when they open their mouth scary laugh of a skull can be heard and in the background atmospheric scary noises are played.
How we built it
We build it using lens studio & by learning through tutorials & documentation.
Challenges we ran into
We faced several difficulties, we didn't know anything about lens studio before, so we started from scratch, and we had to struggle with using templates & fixing bugs in the beginning. Still, eventually, we figured out how to make what we desired.
Accomplishments that we're proud of
We're proud that we were able to think, learn & make a Snapchat lens that eventually went to the trending page with 100k+ Plays. Loved the experience.
