Weve known for a long time that gaming is not Oculus VRs only focus, but it seems film might play an even larger role in virtual reality than we suspected. The company behind Oculus Rift has introduced a new entertainment-focused internal group called Oculus Story Studio, reports The Verge. The studio aims to build up virtual reality content that isnt video games, the site says, looking at VR storytelling methods, sharing research and producing VR films. Its first project, a three-and-a-half to ten-minute interactive film called Lost, is debuting at the Sundance Film Festival this week. It was directed by former Pixar animator Saschka Unseld, and will be displayed on the Oculus Rift Crescent Bay prototype. Story Studio is allegedly comprised of a total of ten people, but theres a lot of potential for growth - depending largely on the publics response to the VR film being shown off this week.
