The Lessons of Auschwitz project is dedicated to the 75th anniversary of the liberation of the Auschwitz concentration camp. Nine Moscow schoolchildren expressed in VR their emotions from visiting the Auschwitz memorial. We have transferred them into their own artworks using the technology of volumetric video capture

During realization we managed to capture participants in a chroma key room using the DepthKit library and the Azure Kinect sensor

All the effects were chosen and adjusted to suit the participants' personalities and mood
Peter Theremin, the great-grandson of Lev Theremin, the inventor of the theremin, wrote music for the experience to create immersion in the atmosphere of drawings' mood
In the project, we have combined volumetric capture, audio-active Tilt Brush and computer graphics
Different platforms
In addition to the final video, we also combined children's drawings into virtual reality and mixed reality projects. We wanted to put the viewer inside the video, so the experience would be more immersive, emotional and engaging
