Vision Pro's First Scripted Immersive Film Is Coming This Week (9to5mac.com) 10

The first scripted Immersive Video project for Apple's Vision Pro debuts on October 10. Called Submerged, the film "invites viewers onto a WWII-era submarine and follows its crew as they wrestle to combat a harrowing torpedo attack." 9to5Mac reports: The short film was written and directed by an Academy Award-winning filmmaker. That makes it stand out from other Immersive Video Apple has produced to this point. The filmmaker, Edward Berger, is best known for films like All Quiet on the Western Front and the upcoming Conclave. You can watch the trailer with commentary from the director here.

    Yaaaaawn

    • Yeah. 3D video has existed for a long time. So have 3D movies.

      This is just Apple (and their fans) doing their usual schtick of relabeling existing technologies and pretending they invented something revolutionary.

        No this is worse. 3D (depth) is just a visual trick to create realism on a film. It is still fully in control of the director (e.g. you can't focus on an out of focus area of the image forcing your eye to see what the director wants you to see).

        This immersive video on the other hand has very little control over the narrative you see. The director said it right "you're not watching a movie anymore, you're inside the story". All the tools at their disposal to create emotions are gone. No ability to add a Dutc

      • Repackaging someone else's inventions is "innovation." Or so past CXOs have told me.

        Um, most excellent and cool story bro!

        Can you show us where Apple said they invented anything here? Help a friend out, you know where the cites are where Apple claimed they invented 3-D.

  • Immersive headpieces are nice, but I'd really like to find a solution for a full-room projection mapping, complete with touch feedback and location detection. There is a lot of potential there.

      And when that happens, the great driver of video technology will be there to move it along - Pr0n.

      Ironic? Sarcastic? Probably just insightful.

  • Apple Vision Pro: the perfect device to experience claustrophobia in a life-and-death situation you have no control over.

    Next movie: This Is the End, a belter of a movie that will let you experience suicide by jumping off the Golden Gate, with great immersive views of the city on the way down.
