History
2020 to present
Hannah’s passion for VR was ignited during a visit to a VR film showcase in Holland, where she was captivated by the possibilities of immersive technology. Inspired by this experience, she created her first VR film in 2021, marking the beginning of an exciting journey into the world of virtual reality.
Hannah started High5VR in 2020 and has directed and produced a growing portfolio of immersive VR experiences, including the award-winning Anniversary Dinner, a comedy VR film that places the viewer at the dinner table as part of the story, Faster Than Dreams—a documentary following racing drivers of different ages and experience levels as they pursue their passion for motorsport—and the upcoming immersive VR movie Sammy Rambles and The Floating Circus, where the viewer becomes the main character and experiences the story entirely from a first-person perspective. Alongside her work in filmmaking, she has continued to expand her expertise in virtual and augmented reality, creating immersive experiences that combine compelling storytelling with cutting-edge technology.
