“Neuro” is an entirely computer generated five-minute immersive film, which is being shown on the latest VR headsets, and was developed using AMD graphics technology. With creative direction by Kite & Lightning Co-foundersIkrimaElhassan and Cory Strassburger, the team helped bring to life the video’s main character – a detailed digital model of Ladytron DJ/band member, Reuben Wu. To ensure an accurate likeness, special attention was paid to all aspects of his virtual alter ego. In addition to creating a photo-real digital model, his facial performance was captured and animated to match the narrated voiceover. Deluxe also provided ADR (automated dialogue replacement) for the project.  

Deluxe and Kite & Lightning will be demonstrating the “Neuro” VR experience during the Cannes Lions International Festival of Creativity being held June 21-27, 2015 in Cannes, France.
