Abstract
This chapter examines the approaches of contemporary cinematic virtual reality (CVR) practitioners, with a focus on development techniques and methods of collaboration. Due to an identified blurring between CVR writing and production, this calls for an exploration of ‘project’ development, a process that encompasses ‘script’ development, that involves complex and varied interactions between individuals and institutions, and that results in the writing and realisation of an immersive screen work. The chapter presents two case studies, these being The Antarctica Experience (writer/dirs. Briege Whitehead and Phil Harper, 2018) and Awake (writers Martin Taylor, Mike Jones & Christian Cantamessa, dir. Martin Taylor, Australia, 2018), considering the impact of factors such as the technical requirements for shooting and distribution, and funding sources.
