Immersive Tech & Creativity
Description:
Join us on March 14th at Waterford Gallery of Art for an insightful discussion on the impact of immersive technology on creative industries. From virtual production in film and TV to augmented reality at art galleries and tourist attractions, immersive technology is changing the way we create and experience content.
Following the success of our opening event, the Digital Creative Showcase, we are excited to continue exploring the intersection of creativity and technology. In this event, we will hear from three experienced creatives who have embraced immersive technology in their work.
Our speakers and panelists include:
Aaron Jay, will talk about how his company Emagine has made the transition from being a traditional design agency to a digital creative agency specialising in developing immersive experiences. Aaron will give examples of how different creative fields are embracing immersive technology and how the craft of storytelling will continue to be at the center of how we create and consume content.
Following this talk Aaron will be joined by Linda Curtin and Ryan Mckenna for a panel discussion.
Linda Curtin, is an award-winning visual artist, filmmaker, and founder of Immersive Ireland. As an immersive tech enthusiast Linda will draw on her experiences designing and delivering Immersive Wexford, a program that facilitated learning in the field of VR, AR, and virtual production.
Ryan McKenna, is an award-winning Indie filmmaker specialising in virtual production. He produced Ireland's first virtual production short film “THIRST” and is representing Ireland's immersive technology cluster Eirmersive.
