Behind the Shot: Mount Teurafaatiu

Ever wondered what it takes to get the shot? Join us from sea to summit as we film Mount Teurafaatiu.

An adventurous mountain experience in French Polynesia, moving through the scene as if you are walking it yourself, running 8 min in immersive VR180.

French Polynesia is home to Lagoons and Volcanic Peaks. Every experience here is filmed on location in resolutions up to 16K.

Watch natively on Apple Vision Pro, or in the browser on Meta Quest, Pico, and Samsung Galaxy XR.

What to expect

The camera travels through the scene for the full 8 min, so the view opens and changes around you rather than waiting for you to look. Give yourself a moment to settle before you start turning your head.

It is filmed in stereoscopic VR180, which means depth is real: near things sit close, far things stay far, and the mountain reads at proper scale instead of flattening onto a screen. Look up, look to the edges of the frame, and take your time. There is nothing to steer and nothing to learn.

We tag this one adventurous, and it sits in French Polynesia alongside the rest of what we have filmed there. Create an account to watch this one in full.
