Kate Bulkley chairs RTS's upcoming panel on Tuesday 1st November on virtual theatre and augmented reality, featuring demonstrations of the latest kit.
Virtual Reality and 360⁰ storytelling is a burgeoning area, and this session attempts to make sense of a new industry backed by major players and billions of dollars.
But there seem to be more questions than answers. Can Virtual Reality ever be anything more than a toy for gamers? How do you tell a meaningful story in 360⁰? Why would anyone want to wear a headset in their living room? Are consumers actually generating compelling content themselves? Finally, is there any money to be made, and if so, where are the opportunities for producers, commissioners and platforms?
Meanwhile, Apple’s Tim Cook maintains virtual reality is more than just a niche “‘It's really cool”. Their panel will map out the terrain, and considers the creative and business opportunities.
