We Met in Virtual Reality: Director founds VR studio Painted Clouds

Joe Hunting, director of We Met in Virtual Reality, is launching his own production studio. Painted Clouds, as the studio is called, will focus exclusively on the production of VR films and series. Hunting shot the VR documentary We Met in Virtual Reality entirely in VRChat, which received critical acclaim at last year's Sundance Film Festival. Painted Clouds Park, a VRChat world for production sets and events, will also soon be created on the popular social VR platform.

Microsoft Teams will soon enable immersive 3D meetings with avatars

Microsoft is integrating its mixed reality platform, Microsoft Mesh, into Microsoft Teams. This enables immersive 3D meetings and events with avatars within Teams. Spatial audio and integrated audio zones enable multiple simultaneous conversations in the same room. Although a VR headset is not required for 3D teamwork, the experience is much more immersive. The Mesh platform is expected to be introduced to Teams in January next year. Despite the integration, Microsoft Mesh will remain a standalone platform.
