Taking place at 99 Sudbury in Toronto, Ontario on Sunday, November 23rd to Monday, November 24th, full registration includes sessions, meals, and priority exhibit access. Free public exhibition runs 2:00PM to 5:30PM on Sunday. Pre-Register to ensure access!

“Immersed is Canada’s premiere gathering of creative and technology VR and immersive minds,” said James Stewart, CEO of Geneva Film Company. “Geneva Film Co. is very excited about bringing ideas and creativity to the next immersive platform — 360 3D. If you are inspired by technology, you have to be there.”

Jaunt and New Deal Studios will showcase the cutting edge of storytelling with Jaunt’s 360-degree, stereoscopic cinematic VR capture and display technology. Viewers will be “inside” the action with “The Mission,” a WWII rescue mission film directed by Matthew Gratzner, complete with Tanks, pyrotechnics, firefights and close combat; “Black Mass,” a horror vignette from Gregory Plotkin, Director of the Paranormal Activity movie; and “Kaiju Fury,” from Ian Hunter, featuring a massive scale city torn to shreds by rampaging Kaiju.
