VRTOV

Oscar Raby, a Chilean visual artist based in Australia, has been invited for a two-week residency to the National Theatre to experiment with VR and theatre. 

SCREEN AFRICA EXCLUSIVE: Producer Katy Morrison and
director Oscar Raby are the co-founders of an Australian virtual reality (VR) focussed digital production company called VRTOV. In recent years VR has extended its reach
beyond the gaming world as a platform for storytelling and entertainment content.
As a designer in this genre, Morrison shares with Screen Africa how the medium
has the potential to offer audiences a unique immersive experience.

Ingrid Kopp, Senior Consultant at the Tribeca Film Institute describes herself on Twitter as “Endlessly thinking about documentaries, storytelling, audiences, technology, mobile, impact & engagement.” Recently, she’s been guest-curator of Virtual Reality work for the New Dimensions exhibition. i-Docs asked her to describe her involvement in the project.
