Mix of 360 videos & simple interactions
This is about a 20 minute long experience that is a mix of simple interactions that are created from Quill and 360 stereoscopic videos. The videos are a bigger part of the experience than the simple interactive scenes. The video quality is actually pretty good. The story is about a mom and her daughter who has moved to New York to become an artist. The timeline goes back and forth to between when the daughter was very young and when she's older and has moved away. When she's in New York, you actually get to see 2 180 videos (360 total) from her in New York but her mom back home. I'm not sure where back home is exactly. It seems like it might be California. Some parts of this experience are in a foreign language and if you aren't looking in the correct direction, you will miss the translation. I think it's Mandarin Chinese, but I'm not 100% sure on that. Anyways, it's a touching story for Mother's Day. It does seem to end suddenly though. It also seems like it's an advertisement for the Oculus Quest. Vivi (adult) is a beautiful and talented actress. I don't think this is for everyone, but it does show how VR can give you a more intimate look into a story. Especially when you color or take photos. Don't forget to click on Vivian's gift after you've seen the interactive experience. It should have been included in the main part of the story really.

Touching experience
I really enjoy this interactive experience that beautifully captured the relationship between a mom and a daughter who have connected and bonded with art. This experience reminds me how important art is to the world and how artists should be uplifted so more can create these kinds of wonderful experiences.
