Put the glasses on and find yourself in new worlds: With the help of a VR headset, anywhere is possible - even the Rulantica underwater world! But it's not just these technical features that create an unforgettable experience. Michael Mack, Managing Director of Europa-Park and founder of MACK Media and MACK NeXT, talks about his pioneering work at Europa-Park as well as the advantages and difficulties associated with such a technical innovation. Across Europe, developers are working on new inventions, including Frédéric Lecompte, co-founder of BackLight, a production company that develops immersive experiences in augmented, virtual and even hyper reality. While visitors can usually move freely during the VR adventures, Oscar winner Gerd Nefzer manages to tie the audience to their cinema seats. The special effects artist reveals exciting details about his work on Hollywood movie sets and the significant role that empty gas tanks played in the movie Blade Runner 2049. But do film, television and magazines still stand a chance against the new media? Philipp Schulze, Editor-in-Chief of TV Spielfilm und Cinema, has a clear opinion on this.
