Highland Spring 360 VR experience Aerial 360 video required Stirling based marketing agency, Denvir got in touch with us with a special request, to create an exciting immersive 360 video experience for Highland Spring that could be played on google cardboard compatible VR devices for an upcoming marketing event as part of the ‘Brave by nature’ TV Campaign The Ochil hills The idea was to give the audience an experience of flying over the highland spring estate in the ochil hills region of Scotland, mirroring the journey the Highland Spring water would take from the sky and down the hills. The people experiencing the video were expected to be mainly kids and fun loving adults so it needed to be a thrilling ride. Droning on Originally it was proposed that we could film from a paraglider but recent advances in technology meant that a filming from a drone would make the logistics much easier and would offer up many more creative possibilities to tell the story in different ways from a greater range of vantage points and locations.

Bigman came up with several options including an exploration of the iSpace galaxy and a rocket ship taking off. But the idea that excited everyone most was a fairly simple concept; to aid the children in a breathing technique exercise. Keep calm… Paula, the creator of iSpace Wellbeing, would talk through the iSpace breathing technique. At the same time a cartoon brain would breathe in and out in time with Paula’s instructions. When the brain blew out, the seeds from a dandelion clock would disperse around the VR user, helping them to relax and breathe calmly. …and breathe The final product was an experience where the child could be fully immersed in their own little world. They were able to comfortably explore their emotions and be aware of their self being in a calm, private environment where nothing could distract them.
