"Upstander" is a 360 animated experience about bullying, and how we can make a difference if we step in. It was created in partnership with the Oculus VR for Good Program and youth charity The Diana Award. The experience uses scale, embodiment, and space to push the boundaries of the medium. Revolved around a child’s school day Upstander touches on the trauma caused by social, verbal, physical, and cyberbullying.
Upstander uses backpacks to represent children in a school environment to immerse the audience in the story that defies reality and challenges the participant to think and take action. How can we be part of the solution and not be part of the problem? To be part of the solutions proceeds from the distribution of Upstander will be donated to charity. Join us to be part of the solution.
