Google VR View

I have been wondering how we can show VR view without relying on Facebook. Today I found "VR View for the Web" by Google. Here is how it looks.


By the way, try viewing this post using your mobile. The view works for mobile as well!

For comparison, the VR view by Facebook seems to work only within Facebook's site. On the plus side, the Facebook view has the camera top-down orientation gizmo that I find helpful.

I personally am more comfortable with Google's approach. It feels more open and less intrusive. What do you think? Let us all know in the comments below :)

Dungeon Boss Short Videos

Recently I had the privilege to work on short promotional videos for Dungeon Boss, a mobile game by Big Fish Games. Here is the final product.

My involvement was minor, early in the production process and therefore cannot be directly seen in the video. My contribution was lighting the set and recommending ways to texture the set to achieve to look the client wanted. After that texture artists and lighters took over to get the final look seen in the video. Still, I am happy with the final look.

Here is an alternate version with a different opening.
