This presentation explores 4 aspects of VR storytelling and how to use these techniques to create engaging and interactive VR content.

1. VR STORYTELLING:
Designing for the Virtual Mind

2. FIRST ASK:
Why Virtual Reality?

3. WHAT MAKES VR CONTENT UNIQUE?
1. Immersion
2. Embodiment
3. Presence
4. Agency

4. VR CONTENT FORMATS

5. 1. IMMERSION
Where are you transporting the audience?
How does your audience enter your VR world?

6. 2. EMBODIMENT
Which character have you stepped in to?
What unique perspective can you give the audience?

7. 3. PRESENCE
Your audience is part of the experience.
How can you help them connect with their environment and
forget they are in a virtual world?

8. 4. AGENCY
What is the audience role?
How does the narrative react to those choices?

9. AN EMPATHY MACHINE
“VR is difficult to explain because it’s a very
experiential medium. You feel your way
inside of it. It’s a machine, but inside of it, it
feels like real life, it feels like truth.
