Description
Production on the Immersive AR Project '"Inside the Amazon: The Dying Forest"
SeeBoundless, a tech lab, design studio and communication firm whose immersive storytelling and photogrammetry is used by news outlets, educators and organizations around the world, provided TIME Magazine an extensive ground to treetop photogrammetry model of large parts of the Amazon rainforest for their recent expose on deforestation. SeeBoundless’s founder Steve Johnson will show how he helped create the first large scale 3D augmented reality model of the Amazon rainforest, from how to plan and shoot in the Amazon to how to shoot and stitch thousands of images together each day on location. He will detail the tools and processes that he had to use capture the trees and deforestation on a large scale, how they captured images from just above the tree line with trees were constantly in motion and how he worked around unique situations presented scanning in a remote location (such as birds attacking his drones.)
