We have helped A E to create WHIST, which has been supported by funding from the Arts Council England.
Happy Finish produced this innovative 360 Virtual Reality film installation for A E, pushing the medium s storytelling capabilities by merging live performance with the digital experience and the reality of the viewer.
WHIST is an endeavour to unlock the potential of a new medium. The final medium. The 360 medium where virtual and augmented worlds are built. Worlds where soon, the possibility for experience will only be limited by the imagination of the creator. To create in this field requires an entirely new approach, and in A E we've found minds that are willing to forget everything they know and begin a joint process of discovery. WHIST is the culmination of everything discovered that has worked, and it promises to give the first real glimpse into the paradigm shift that lies just ahead. WHIST takes you into a world made up of pockets of fiction, inspired by the work of Sigmund Freud and Shuji Tereyama.
