Inside Augmented Reality Film Experience “The Tent”
On this week’s show we welcome Rory Mitchell, a theater director and documentary filmmaker who tells stories in VR & AR, to show us how Mercantile built the SXSW Festival Breakout Hit “The Tent.” The Tent is an Augmented Reality tabletop narrative and a glimpse of the future of spatial entertainment.
"When a woman wakes up one morning to find that a mysterious tent has appeared in her front yard, she’s not sure what to do about it…
A modern fairy tale set in Los Angeles, "The Tent" looks at the fraught relationship between the housed and the unhoused and the interpersonal social dynamics of activism with humor and heart."
Built for iPadPro using volumetric video and photogrammetry, it allows The Tent audience to explore a miniature world from any perspective, creating a movie that you can walk around in.
Tune in to see how The Tent was made, and get a look at the latest augmented reality filmmaking technology.
