If you have come across both High5VR and OowOah, it helps to start with what your business needs to do. Commissioning original VR content and using a shared VR meeting or event platform are different starting points, and some projects may involve both.
High5VR provides VR production and development services. OowOah provides a platform for VR meetings and live VR experiences. Your intended audience and activity should guide which conversation comes first.
When should you speak to High5VR?
Start with High5VR when you need content or an experience created for a particular purpose. That could mean filming a real location in 360°, planning a documentary, developing a training scenario or discussing a product presentation.
A production brief should explain the problem, the audience and where the experience will be used. The work required depends on whether you need filmed content, a computer-generated environment, interaction or a combination.
When might OowOah be relevant?
OowOah is relevant when the main requirement is bringing people together through its meeting or live VR services. VR Meeting Rooms and Live VR serve different activities, so explain whether people need to meet and collaborate or watch an event.
For current platform information, visit OowOah’s website. Check the requirements and availability for the specific service you want to use before making plans or inviting an audience.
Could one project involve both?
A business may need original material created and a way to share it with people. In that situation, discuss the production and the delivery requirements together at the planning stage.
Do not assume a commissioned experience will automatically work inside another platform. File formats, playback, interaction, permissions and equipment need checking. A bespoke integration is a separate requirement to discuss and scope.
What should you tell us first?
Describe the activity rather than choosing a technology immediately. Are you showing a place, rehearsing a task, holding a discussion or delivering an event? Who needs to take part, and what equipment will they have?
Also explain whether you already have content and whether sessions need to happen live. This gives us a useful starting point for separating production work from platform requirements and identifying any connection between them.
Start with your intended outcome
Contact High5VR with a short description of what you want your audience to experience. We can discuss whether the next step is a production brief, a conversation about OowOah or a review of how both could contribute.
