Newsletter #5 - Fireside Chat tmw! + AWE House
Hi friends!
The Spring Cohort just began it's third week, here's what happened last week:
Photography expert Austin Beaulier ran an amazing photogrammetry workshop teaching our creators about PolyCam and RealityCapture and got us results like this
Director Andrew Gant set up an impressive 5 sensor 360 vol cap studio in our garage and taught us how to get our volumetric captures into Unity!
Ollie, Dani, and Livi took 🏆 FIRST PRIZE 🏆 in our 2nd internal hackathon with an AR-2-Photo-2-GeoCities GIF finding app that was impressively retro and Y2K
AR House Live! debuted with special guest Jesse Damiani and our conversation got right to the heart of ethics in the metaverse. Philosophical and spicy!
Cohort member Dave just got great news from Oculus Launch Pad
Cohort member Anna just hit a 1000 day streak in Duolingo
AR House Fireside Chat tmw (May 4th @ 7pm)
We have not one but two INCREDIBLE award-winning creators coming in tomorrow to chat about their careers and latest works with Harry Potter VR. Register to lock in your spot! 👇
AWE House! (June 1st-3rd)
AR House is doing its first ever 'conference house' this June at AWE! 🏡🏡
We put the idea of doing a house out to our community and the response was so big we had to book TWO houses in Santa Clara just to fit everyone! We are very much looking forward to seeing our members again as well as bringing members from different cohorts together for the first time. Stay tuned for possible events at the AWE House :)
