From SciFi To Empathy, ILMxLAB Is Exploring VR

Lucasfilm’s virtual reality studio, ILMxLAB, is pioneering a new way of telling stories.
 
The Star Wars hyper-reality experience, Secrets of the Empire, sees fans create their own adventure as rebels on Mustafar – Darth Vader’s molten lava home planet.
 
And together with film director Alejandro Iñárritu, they have capitalised on the power of VR to generate empathy in a story on illegal immigrants.
