Discover the Workshop

Get ready for an epic tech adventure! In this workshop, we dive into the coolest techniques for sculpting digital objects, painting mind-blowing virtual environments, and shooting 360° video for virtual reality (VR). Students kick things off with fun VR painting sessions in Open Brush, where they learn the basics of crafting in 3D space while getting hands-on with VR headsets. From there, we explore photogrammetry (yep, turning real objects into digital models!), experiment with 360° cameras, and piece everything together in Premiere Pro or After Effects. Along the way, we check out some awesome VR work from today’s leading artists and documentarians to spark creativity. By the end, students have the skills and confidence to turn their wildest ideas into fully immersive VR experiences.
