[Philip Lelyveld comment: Mark Bolas is a featured speaker at the ETC's upcoming roundtable on VR.]
Zero Point is the first 3D 360 degree documentary film to be released for the Oculus Rift VR headset. The film is not only shot for virtual reality, it’s also about virtual reality. Academy Award nominated director Danfung Dennis talks with virtual reality pioneers about the medium as he uses VR itself to bring viewers closer than ever to the subjects.
Dennis and his team shot Zero Point using a number of different camera rigs and processes. Viewers will see footage in 180 degrees, 360 degrees, and even some CGI—all of it is in 3D. The film engages VR pioneers Jeremy Bailenson, Mark Bolas, and Palmer Luckey, whose voices act as a backdrop to varied scenery.
