Film and Technology

Author and filmmaker David Marlett is researching and developing what he calls “cinemersia,” the cinematic, storytelling, and artistic techniques necessary to produce feature length, live-action, narrative ‘films’ to be experienced within head-mounted displays (“HMDs”) such as the Oculus Rift or Sony Morpheus. His narrative/story work is in concert with the numerous innovators currently developing advanced HMDs, 3D/360 cameras, and workflow/distribution technologies.
