Real Time Stories

What is it like to spend a week working on your own project in the XR Stories immersive technology lab, with access to state-of-the-art facilities and expert support? A new residency diary from the Real Time Stories team provides an insight into some of the behind-the-scenes details of five action-packed days with our team. From the challenges of facial capture and performing in mocap to exciting new opportunities, the diary records the team's journey developing a taster for their Virtual Reality experience, 'Tech Support'. https://hubs.li/Q02Tqzwd0

Want to say a big thank you to XR Stories and XR Network+ for providing us with a residency to explore mine and Joe Willis project. It felt great to revisit a version of Console that was rooted in our intrigue with film and VR, and look at creating a sister project to explore new ways of experiencing the narrative. A big thank you to Joe Rees-Jones Emma Willingham for guiding us through the residency, tech, ideation, and planning. Also thank you to Dan Norman for chatting with us each day on our activities, alongside the photography too. Lastly to our actor Dylan S. performed the motion capture and audio for the project. Was a blast and can't wait to push this project further and share more about it. #residency #narrative #vr
