Virtual/Augmented Reality Workshops at Emily Carr

Are you an Indigenous creator, artist, storyteller, producer, media creator, or community member? Interested in exploring the creative possibilities of virtual reality or augmented reality?

Indigenous Matriarch 4 (IM4) Media Lab is offering two video workshops at Emily Carr University next week, February 19-21, 2019 in virtual reality (VR), augmented reality (AR), and 360 video. These workshops are free for Indigenous media creators and community members interested in gaining knowledge and expanding their skill set in AR/VR/360 video.

These two free, three-day workshops will give you training in VR/AR/360 video, where you will use the tools, and gain the knowledge and skills needed to create your own VR immersive experiences and productions. Throughout the courses, you’ll have an introduction to XR, explore how to practice Indigenous storytelling through these mediums, and will get to see a showcase of how Indigenous media creators are embracing VR.
