Meet The Mountain Gorillas

Year: 2015

There are only 800 mountain gorillas left in the world.

In 2015 we set out to the border between Uganda and Congo to be the first to capture these magnificent animals in VR. A young Gorilla stole the show when he grabbed our camera and filmed himself for several minutes.
Looking into his human-like eyes, you realise once more how similar to us they are and how important the protection of this majestic and elusive animal is.

Lots of media picked up on the story including Discovery Channel, Fox and Ryot.
