A PLACE & TIME FOR NEW BEAUTIFUL REALITIES AT SUNDANCE 2016
The beauty of special places and times offer you new realities. Check out some of the BN Team favorites at the Sundance Film Festival 2016!
A HISTORY OF CUBAN DANCE
Feel the beat in A History of Cuban Dance, a beautiful spicy VR Experience, directed by Lucy Walker. Check out the sexy dance moves that developed from Afro-Cuban Santería, to rumba, mambo, cha-cha-chá, salsa, breakdancing, and reggaeton. Filmed on location in Cuba, featuring Ballet de la Televisión Cubana, Walker’s VR oeuvre offers optional audio tracks that relate Cuba’s dance history to the general history of its people.
THE UNKNOWN PHOTOGRAPHER
Journey back to WW1 via The Unknown Photographer, a new VR Experience, directed by, Claudine Matte, Osman Zeki, and Loic Suty.
Chock full of historical photographs, that were found in an abandoned country house in Quebec. They are woven together in an extensive, interactive, animated landscape, this documentary beautifully immerses you.
THE LEVIATHAN PROJECT
Find yourself in scientific lab underneath a massive flying whale, in 1895. The Leviathan Project, an augmented-reality-to-VR experience, developed by the 5D World Building Media Lab, is based on Scott Westerfield's best-selling trilogy.
You will become a flying jellyfish (called Huxleys) and engage physically and emotionally with its human and animal characters. Look out! A massive whale is flying off the screen and into the air, above you!
