VR is about to get a creative filmmaker's touch.
Ridley Scott's RSA Films production company is launching a new imprint "dedicated exclusively to the creative development and production of VR (virtual reality), AR (augmented reality) and mixed media." It's called RSA VR.
RSA VR's first project is a VR Experience for "Alien: Covenant," in partnership with Twentieth Century Fox and Technicolour.
"We have been heavily involved in VR for the past few years, and having a dedicated stand-alone division underscores our commitment to immersive media in both the brand and entertainment space," RSA Films' president Jules Daly said.

Okay, 2nd try: VR like 3D is not going to draw some people to theaters given (A) the costs and drawbacks of theaters, and (B) the convenience of watching a big screen at home. 3D does not add to the actual story telling experience. I am doubtful that VR does either.

The lower I set my standards the more accomplishments I have.
