Leonardo Souza shares 360VR project in development -The Technically Brilliant Show
Brazilian filmmaker Leonardo Souza is our guest on episode #4 of "The Technically Brilliant Show." We will discuss Leo’s project, “Rabiola Tales,” about an old man sharing nostalgic tales about the characters in his neighborhood with you, while teaching you how to fly a VR kite above the rooftops of a Rio de Janeiro favela. New Images XR Financing Market accepted “Rabiola Tales” into the curated portion of their XR market, and Leo will be taking meetings about funding the in-development Oculus version of the piece and licensing the already-completed 360VR version of the piece, which was created for museums and schools.
