WARSAW RISING VR

“Warsaw Rising” CINEMATIC VR EXPIERIENCE is the first feature film in Poland executed in the virtual reality technology. It tells a story based on the fate of one of Warsaw insurgents, Capt. Władysław Sieroszewski alias “Sabała”, who received a note with a message from his daughter when he was leaving to fight in the Uprising in August 1944. At the time, he did not know yet that the note would influence his further fate.

A combination of stereoscopy, an imaging technique creating or enhancing the illusion of depth and distance for binocular vision, and ambisonic sound lets the viewers experience immersion – the impression of becoming submerged in the image.

Almost 60 actors, 17 minutes long Cinematic VR experience, various locations including destroyed city, explosions, gunshots, tanks, 24 cameras and touching plot based on actual events – that all makes Warsaw Rising the VR movie that got critics acclaimed all over the world.
