Today we’re announcing that VR Creator Lab is coming to London. Participants will receive between $30,000 and $40,000 USD in funding towards their VR project, attend a three day “boot camp” September 18-20, 2018, and receive three months of training from leading VR instructors and filmmakers.
Applications are open through 5pm British Summer Time on August 6, 2018. YouTube creators with a minimum of 10,000 subscribers and independent filmmakers are eligible. Participants must be 18+ years old. We’ll select the participants based on the quality of their pitches and the feasibility of completing their projects within the three month timeframe.
Even if you’re not selected to join us in London, you can check out our guide to getting started with VR180 cameras and editing tools. We believe that everyone benefits when creators share their creative vision with the world, so we’re always on the lookout for new ways to make it easier and more affordable to create in VR. We hope you’ll give VR180 filmmaking a try!
