Beyond Reality: How we built a Virtual Reality app for the Economist
The growing trend around virtual reality is an opportunity for VR content creators and UX/UI designers to write a new set of rules that could change the way future generations curate and consume immersive content.
Leading VR studio Visualise has recently collaborated with digital product designers Kickpush to begin this exploration, working on the development of a new VR app for The Economist.
Head of VR, William McMaster will offer insights into how Visualise applied their VR expertise to design the experience and will be joined by Kickpush co-Founders Alex Deruette and Sam Applebee who will share their process of applying traditional UI/UX ideas to a VR canvas.
