LOS ANGELES: Before famed British broadcaster Sir David Attenborough ventured across the Atlantic to star in his first virtual reality film last year, an advance team took the trip with a key prop: a handful of Attenborough’s signature pale blue shirts.
The shirts had to be tested because Attenborough wasn’t just visiting a regular VR film set. Instead, he was being filmed at Microsoft’s Mixed Reality Capture studio, housed on the company’s Redmond campus. It’s a specialised studio dedicated to volumetric capture, capable of recording people in full 3D, ready to be turned into holograms.
