Discover the future of storytelling with Dream Machines, an exclusive VR exhibition showcasing groundbreaking works from the 2024 Cannes Film Festival, produced by French studio Atlas V and other leading international VRstudios.
Join us from September 7-10 at OCAD University, in collaboration with the Consulate General of France and with the support of the French Institute, during the Toronto International Film Festival.
Immerse yourself in a collection of four captivating VR films, including:
- Battlescar by Nico Casavecchia, featuring Rosario Dawson
- Emperor by Marion Burger and Ilan J. Cohen, starring Olivia Cooke (House of Dragons)
- Gloomy Eyes by Fernando Maldonado and Jorge Tereso, with Colin Farrell
- Missing Pictures: Naomi Kawase by Clément Deneux
Each film utilizes cutting-edge technologies such as game engines, volumetric cameras, and 3D animation to create truly immersive experiences.
The exhibition also features Heated Dance, an innovative VR film by OCAD U graduate Gabriel Masewich featured in this summer's Intel Encore AI exhibition. This interactive animation explores the physics of entropy in a visually stunning and thought-provoking way.
