"Body of Mine," an immersive piece by Cameron Kostopoulos, premiered at SXSW 2023 and won the Special Jury Award in the XR Experience category. The festival jurors called the project "a beautifully crafted virtual reality experience that shows how VR can provide a safe space for understanding, reflection, and connection when a safe space in the real world is hard to find."
Cameron, a 2022 graduate of the Film and Television Production major and the Future Cinema Minor, worked on this project as part of his IML 481: Mixed Realities course, taught by Professor Scott Fisher. Fellow MA+P students Nali Mandi (MA+P '22) and Luke Greenwood (MA+P '23) are credited as 3D artists for the project.
