CAMERA was proud to contribute digital characters, using our proprietary animation technology, to Satore Studios’ Raindance award-winning VR production Cosmos Within Us directed by Tupac Martir.
Martir’s team, who’s production won the Best Immersive Experience of the Festival this month, visited the CAMERA studio where actors wore a Vicon Cara headset with 4 video cameras. These were used to track markers strategically placed on their faces. The team at CAMERA used an in-house facial motion capture solver algorithm to match and blend a library of face shapes to fit the changing marker positions. Rubin Shah at Satore noted that “we worked with CAMERA as we knew they could deliver the motion capture that was required for the production to be delivered in the vision we required.”
Cosmos Within Us is a unique technological story-telling experiment which blurs the boundaries between VR and performance. Through a combination of state-of-the-art tech, immersive soundscapes, scent and touch, the piece explores the intricate connection between memory and the senses.
Cosmos Within Us is an a_BAHN and Satore Studio production, with the support of Film Fund Luxembourg
