ep 67 - D-Day: The Camera Soldier — Filming for Apple Vision Pro | CineD Focus Check

In this episode, we were fortunate to be connected through Blackmagic Design with Victor from TARGO, a Paris-based production company that has been pushing the boundaries of immersive storytelling from the very beginning. Their latest project, “D-Day: The Camera Soldier”, is a groundbreaking documentary created specifically for the Apple Vision Pro. It blends historical footage with interactive and immersive elements, offering a completely new way to experience this pivotal moment in history.

Nino and Victor discuss the unique technical challenges involved in producing content for the Vision Pro, and explore why the effort is worthwhile despite the complexities. They also share their vision for how immersive production could become more accessible in the near future, especially with tools like the upcoming Blackmagic URSA Cine Immersive — which we also reported about.
