EXTENDED VISION

360 VR Virtual Reality meets Full Dome

Documentary film makes the artificial its own. It makes the real virtual, without sacrificing naturalness, urgency, and consistency. On the contrary, technology enables new perspectives of the world around us and builds bridges. Virtual space is capable of tearing down physical boundaries and reconfiguring them within a new world, drawing viewers deep into an immersive experience in the process.
