‘Miyubi’ from Funny Or Die, Oculus, and Felix & Paul is here.
We all know by now that VR is a creative playground ripe for experimentation. But that also means there’s an inherent risk in every project, especially in longer-format work that requires a much bigger commitment from both producers and audience. And yet, that’s exactly the risk VR creators Félix Lajeunesse and Paul Raphaël (whose studio goes by Felix & Paul) took with their 40-minute scripted comedy VR film Miyubi.
That risk was mitigated by the addition of the hilarious team at Funny or Die and VR hardware pioneers Oculus—with a dash of Jeff Goldblum thrown in for good measure. Miyubi, the result of their collaboration, premiered at Sundance and Cannes earlier this year and is now available to anyone with an Oculus-ready headset.
