RECAP:VR Workshop Adding Accessible Digital Experiences to Storytelling

We were very fortunate to have Michaela Ternasky-Holland come and teach us the basics of Immersive Digital Tools. She’s a bright, knowledgeable, energetic speaker who obviously has found a  passion for Virtual Reality,  XR Cameras and the likes.  She broke it down into bite sized pieces we could ingest and ponder ways in which these seemingly futuristic mediums can enhance our projects.
