Kusunda - A Voice-Driven Volumetric VR Film

I had the opportunity to take part in the post-production process of this virtual reality documentary, during my internship at the award winning, Berlin-based studio NowHere Media. 

The internship was undertaken during my Master’s studies in Visual and Media Anthropology at HMKW University of Applied Science, Berlin. 

Narrated by 86-year-old Kusunda shaman Lil Bahadur and his 15-year-old granddaughter Hima, "Kusunda '' is an educational voice-driven VR experience centered around the Kusunda, an indigenous community located in Nepal. The one-of-a-kind educational VR film uses a combination of voice-activated interactions and volumetric capture to immerse you in the life and culture of the Kusunda people, shining a spotlight on the importance of preserving dying languages in the process.
