Good for a *very* basic understanding of just some of what this VR (AR/MR/XR) industry makes and some of the common terminology. Literally, only a "quick introduction" and nothing beyond that. Useful if you've never heard of/experienced any of these technologies. Otherwise, the course is a bit dated already, and won't really get you started in the industry, making (or even using) VR, or anything like that.

Instructor Bio

My passion is sharing knowledge and inspiring people to explore their curiosities. As a life-long learner, I’ve found that assimilating information is not enough. I also need to break down complex topics and present them to others. Doing so locks that knowledge into my memory and builds a more tacit understanding of the material.

  I create courses in my primary fields of interest:

·         Virtual Reality (Including VR, AR, 360, MR, etc.)

·         VR Filmmaking: Narrative Storytelling in Virtual Environments

·         Screenwriting, especially writing for VR

·         VR Product Management

·         Business Management

·         Technology in Education

·         Various Other Business & Entertainment Topics

Born and raised in the United States, I got my undergrad degree in Business. After a great career in the business world, I went back to school in France getting my MBA/MSc in International Business. Then it was off to the United Kingdom where I used Virtual Reality as part of my research while studying for my PhD.

Now back in the USA, working in the Entertainment industry for a studio in Hollywood, California.

  Curiosity is your brain’s way of saying, “Hey you! Go learn something!”
