When:

November 1, 2016 to December 1, 2016

About the Event:

When: November 1, 2016

Where: Dallas, Texas

About the event: Mark Zuckerberg (Facebook Founder) recently announced at Oculus’ developer conference in San Jose that Facebook will invest $250 million in the development and creation of virtual reality content. Educational content creators will receive an additional $10 million from the social media platform as well. As other companies follow suit, the potential multi-billion dollar industry has been set into motion.

Several cameras will be on-hand along with a conversation that will highlight the various content that can be created from each rig. From prosumer Samsung Gear 360s to various GoPro rigs and Sony Fs7’s to Nokia Ozo’s you will be able to find out which product may be best for you to stake your claim in the VR gold rush! Join industry leaders that have been creating Virtual Reality content via traditional production methods along with those that have adapted to cameras built specifically for VR content creation. This is a great way to identify if VR should be added to your production portfolio. And, if it is, you can walk away with the basics of how to begin creating content.
