Virtual reality and 360-degree video have arrived in newsrooms, transporting audiences to the centre of the story and enabling them to consume the news in a more immersive way than ever before.

In this workshop, we will take a look at some of the great films made so far, produced with a variety of techniques, from 3D scanning technology to CGI or illustration.

Delegates will leave with a greater appreciation of what can be done with this technology, and no doubt brimming with ideas of how to take it back to their organisation.

With:

Nicole Jackson, deputy editor, virtual reality, the Guardian;
Marc Ellison, video and photojournalist;
Jayisha Patel, independent filmmaker.
