Experience Desig: Intro Virtual Reality

Experience and explore the current state of
Virtual Reality. We will watch and discuss
a wide variety of VR projects, including 360
video for mobile devices and interactive
headset systems, such as the Oculus Rift and HTC
Vive. We will explore narrative,
journalistic, non-fiction, and other types of
projects that defy categorization. Drawing
on our understanding of live performance and
recorded media (such as film, video
games, and television), we will explore how we
can put those skills to use to conceive
and create new work that pushes the VR medium
forward. The class will give students
an overview of the existing VR technology, the
creation tools, and the current industry
thinking about the VR roadmap going forward.

This course is open to Design and Production
Foundation students through online signup, and
open to the institute through permission of
instructor at Course Advising Day.
