CAVE

A shared VR short film set 12,000 years in the past, when the history of our ancestors was painted on the walls of caves.

Using the latest in experiential technology, this multi-user VR short film was designed from the ground up to challenge the status quo around how audiences collectively experience immersive arts and entertainment.

Produced in partnership with the NYU Future Reality Lab, CAVE was sponsored by the likes of Google, Bose, and NVIDIA. After a technical demo at SIGGRAPH 2018, where it was screened for audiences of 30 at a time, the piece made its US Premiere at the 2019 Tribeca Film Festival in New York City.
