<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">It’s been five years since VR director Justin Denton last joined Chris on the CG Garage Podcast, and in that time he has truly pushed the boundaries of the medium. He’s produced jaw-dropping tie-in experiences for</span> <em><span style="font-weight: 400;">Ghost in the Shell</span></em><span style="font-weight: 400;">,</span> <em><span style="font-weight: 400;">Mr. Robot</span></em> <span style="font-weight: 400;">and</span> <em><span style= "font-weight: 400;">Legion</span></em><span style= "font-weight: 400;">. And he’s indulged his passion for Dickens’</span> <em><span style="font-weight: 400;">A Christmas Carol</span></em> <span style="font-weight: 400;">via</span> <em><span style="font-weight: 400;">Chained: A Victorian Nightmare</span></em><span style="font-weight: 400;">, which uses techniques from games and immersive theater to deliver a unique, personalized experience.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Justin is an authority on how the VR industry has shifted and settled, and its uses as a tool and a medium. Meanwhile, in his new role as Staff Director at Blur Studio, he’s taking VR techniques into filmmaking with his exhilarating</span> <em><span style= "font-weight: 400;">PUBG</span></em> <span style= "font-weight: 400;">trailer. He also details his contribution to DD and Time Magazine’s project,</span> <em><span style= "font-weight: 400;">The March</span></em><span style= "font-weight: 400;">, which takes participants into a VR recreation of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.’s historic rally.</span></p>
