This video was a passion project that I had been putting off for some time. For the past two months, I kept telling myself that I just needed one more week to complete it. Although the video is not perfect, I finally had to let it go and share it with the world. There were so many things I wanted to add and change, but at some point, you have to release your creation into the world. Even if I worked on this video for another year, I still wouldn't be satisfied with it.
Originally, the video was five hours long, but I managed to cut it down to two hours and then one hour. The project was enormous, and my head was full of VR stuff. I had 506GB of raw footage, and my Davinci Resolve project was so massive that it kept crashing. To manage it, I had to divide it into nine separate projects, but even then, they would still crash. During the shooting, my camera broke halfway through, and I had to use a replacement camera with a buzzing microphone, so I had to dub over the footage. The audio mixing was a nightmare, with more than 10 different audio inputs and mics and nine projects to mix, but I finally got there. I had a blast learning about VR and the history of oculus. This video was so much fun and challenging to make.
