Virtual Reality Showcase – Tuesday

Immerse yourself in virtual reality and experience new possibilities for animated storytelling. You’ll have the chance to experience a variety of projects on the Oculus Rift, HTC Vive and Cardboards, ranging from a 360° story about a young girl’s frustration as she tries to dodge the rain to being right in the middle of a dream-like journey from one world to the next.

Try out different goggles and let yourself be transported to new worlds, where you can roam freely, interact with characters, and perhaps even change the course of events!

Look for our program The Art of Nexus for an in-depth presentation about storytelling in virtual reality.

This program screened as part of KLIK Amsterdam Animation Festival 2016
