Title:

Cupido testbed FILM/VR

Description:

Region Värmland created an opportunity for teenagers to explore and create VR content during a 4-week testbed. The participants adapted Agenda2030 as inspiration as they explored the boundaries of storytelling in new cinematic formats. “It's all about getting young people to make their dreams come true. To make them realize that nothing is impossible!” says Joakim Grass, supervisor of the testbed. The testbed resulted in two VR-films that the participants demonstrated at 3 public screenings. The first film tried to convey how daily life can be a struggle for young people with ADD and OCD, an attempt to give the viewer an insight into a new universe. https://youtu.be/8Exj_xC765A The second film tries to demonstrate Gender inequality during a work interview. https://youtu.be/p2wReF9bo0U “It was a steep learning curve for the participants and I was impressed by the level of commitment from the young storytellers. It was amazing to see how they adapted this new technology and emerged into a very intense creative process.” says Josef Nyberg, Region Värmland. The testbed was conducted in Värmland 2019 as a part of the Cupido project.
