Melbourne International Film Festival (MIFF): Digital Puppetry

The Melbourne International Film Festival has always been about new and emotive film experiences. McCann, Melbourne, used virtual reality, film and technology to create an engaging and interactive live experience, not just for one, but for many, 'Digital Puppetry'. Launching on opening night, 'Digital Puppetry' combined virtual reality and 3D projection mapping in an innovative way. Participants were able to become actors in our interactive film live on stage and in real-time in front of an audience to create a shared virtual filmic experience for both our 'virtual' participants and our ‘real’ audience.
