LISTEN TO THE VOICES OF VR PODCAST
Baobab Studios co-founder Eric Darnell summarized the difference between film and VR beautifully. He said that while film is able to give you the story of a single experience, VR enables you to have your own experience that allows you to generate your own story. I don’t think that the New Frontier program was quite prepared to handle the demand to see VR as the average wait time to see an average experience was 90 to 120 minutes with some of the more popular experiences seeing over 3-hour wait times. While this was disappointing to some film fans looking for a quick VR break, it’s certainly good news for VR in that it’s something that had a lot of buzz and interest within the independent film community to see how storytelling is evolving in this new medium.
