Immersive Nature Documentaries

‘ecosphere’ is aThree-Part Oculus Quest Documentary Series

— January 25, 2022 — Eco
With new and immersive ways to present media and film, 'ecosphere' uses the power of virtual reality to bring a unique perspective to its audience. As mentioned in the Tech@FACEBOOK description, the documentary was "produced in partnership with World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF), Silverback Films Ltd, and Oculus," to bring viewers on a "three-part journey across some of nature's most fragile and diverse ecosystems."

The 180° experience allows viewers to move their heads around and feel like they are a part of the journey who are fighting to preserve, protect, and conserve natural ecosystems. With footage that takes them through the rainforest, savannahs, and coral reefs, the documentary's message connects humans and nature through its immersive format.
