Season Tickets have just gone on sale for this year's production of "A Christmas Carol VR," originally conceived with Actors Theatre of Louisville and now our annual opportunity to see how far Agile Lens: Immersive Design can push the limits of technology in service of live interactive narrative. https://lnkd.in/ezcamGXF This year we've added: 1) Onboarding from an AI character (based on Ari Tarr’s Charles Dickens) you can freely speak to while you wait for the show to begin 2) Ari and Debbie Deer both performing from within VR headsets so they can more easily interact with the audience than they were able to with Live Link Face. 3) Cinematography toolkit if you'd like to capture your own compelling live stream of the show 4) Revised script and scenic design 5) Upgrade from Unreal Engine 4.27 to 5.3 (Lumen and Nanite!) ... and many more surprises in store. Needless to say, every performance will be a totally different experience. Passes available as a passive livestream and interactive (VR and non-VR) formats.

Film production is entering a new era, where AI, VR, and AR are transforming the way movies are made, especially when it comes to location scouting. These technologies not only streamline the process but also open up new creative possibilities, allowing filmmakers to explore and enhance locations in ways that were once unimaginable. As these innovations continue to evolve, they promise to reshape the industry, making it more dynamic and imaginative than ever before.

If you’re unfamiliar with XR Production, you're not the only one. We filmed a project on a golf course in the mountains(?) - in Minnesota(?) - indoors(?) - on the hottest day of the year!? - Yes, you somehow read that correctly. XR (Extended Reality) blends digital visuals displayed on an LED Wall with practical set builds to create seamless shooting environments. By syncing the camera with the wall, productions can simulate fully 3D environments that move with the camera. This allows productions to capture scenes in real-time that would otherwise need expensive and time-consuming visual effects. Now artists can control and instantly change their environment, removing typical production hurdles like weather, time, and travel. XR has been adopted by major studios like LucasFilm, Warner Bros., Disney, and ESPN. What did we learn? - This won't replace in-the-field production - it will supplement it. - It's perfect for enhancing tabletop, product, and FAQ-style shoots - If done correctly, It's going to save a lot of people TIME and MONEY - especially when dealing with celebrity talent who have limited time on set. - There is a burgeoning market for unreal engine artists - The convenience factor was off the charts - having a pre-light day where we could leave our equipment set up overnight was invaluable. - The wall itself is a light source that opens up interesting opportunities for lighting your subject #xrproduction #extendedreality #golf #virtualproduction #filmmaking #technology #videoproduction #ledwall

Marvel Studios is teaming up with Industrial Light & Magic's ILM Immersive group to deliver a virtual reality experience for MCU fans. This experience takes users into the animated world of "What If...?" to prevent multiverse variants from harnessing the Infinity Stones' power. It is the first interactive Disney+ original story and will be exclusively available as a free app on Apple Vision Pro for a limited time. The trailer, which showcases gameplay using both augmented and virtual reality, reveals a promising narrative-driven experience despite some initial shortcomings, such as non-original voice actors and somewhat silly AR elements. While a photorealistic Marvel experience would be more costly, the stylized animated universes of "What If...?" offer an enticing and immersive alternative. #arvr #vrtech #virtualreality #news #technology

3D movies vs immersive movies? 😎 Most of you already tried 3D movies like Avatar. It basically gives you a feeling of a 3d space, but you are still separated from the scene. This concept is using mixed reality to enhance what you are seeing in the movie by adding spatial animations around you. Which one do you think is better?
