Third video in my series where I experiment and learn. This time I created a virtual set in Blender and composited in a 2D video and a 3D video of myself. You can see it here along with a list of the tutorials I referenced to create everything - www.michaelverdi.com/immersive-vi...

My first animation in Blender. This is 180° 3D - video from inside my Vision Pro.

The orange Scripnotes book sits on my desk with many colored bookmarks sticking out from the side.

Just finished There Is No Antimemetics Division (loved it) and now about half way through the Scriptnotes book (also loving it).

These are super cool!
