Featured Session: Journeying to the Outpost of Humanity in Space
We’re entering a new era of space exploration, with public and private organizations collaborating on an unprecedented scale to reach deeper into the cosmos than ever before. With it, immersive VR/AR technology is emerging as the most powerful way to transport audiences to experience it for themselves. Join astronauts Jeanette Epps (NASA), David Saint-Jacques (CSA), TIME and Felix & Paul Studios, as they discuss the union of these forces. Space Explorers: the ISS Experience is the most ambitious project ever filmed in Space; uniquely documenting the astronaut experience in 360 3D capture, and culminating in the first-ever spacewalk in cinematic VR. Hear firsthand how audiences will be taken to the edge of space exploration, in humanity’s greatest journey with the power of immersive media.
