This includes 360 video post-production, 3D    modelling, digital storytelling, along with computer-generated    imagery, app and game development.  <\/p>\n<p>    Method and M Theorys Managing Director, Sam Ramlu, says the    company has seen a massive increase in demand for AR and VR    services during the past four years.  <\/p>\n<p>    Weve had a steady stream of projects from local clients and    now projects coming in from LA, Australia, and China. So, it    made sense to set M Theory up. It gives us the ability to    further specialise and invest in the technology.  <\/p>\n<p>    Backed by the team at Method, we now have an in-house 3D    artist, game developer, video editor and multimedia specialist,    and producer, all specialising in rolling out AR and VR for    clients.  <\/p>\n<p>    AR and VR arent on the fringes of marketing anymore. Its a    really accessible marketing tool that allows companies to    connect with consumers and other target audiences in an    authentic and memorable way, says Ms Ramlu.  <\/p>\n<p>    A recent project delivered by the team at M Theory was an    immersive tour of QMS commuter network digital sites, with    integrated 3D graphics and narration delivering a unique    experience compared to their typical 360 video.  <\/p>\n<p>    M Theory also delivered a rich, future homes and energy    visualisation, virtual reality experience for Contact Energy,    which was presented to a group of investment analysts at a    roadshow late in 2016.  <\/p>\n<p>    Another project we worked on recently was an interactive tour    of the newly established Kumeu Film Studios, in partnership    with ATEEDs AR\/VR Garage and filmed by Staples Rentals, this    was recently showcased to producers and directors in Los    Angeles and was a huge success for the NZ Film Commission and    ATEED, says Ms Ramlu.  <\/p>\n<p>    Later in the month M Theory will debut their childrens story    transmedia exhibit at Story Edge  a specially curated showcase    of digital and interactive storytelling, and an extension of    the DocEdge Film Festival. A must-see for the whole family the    exhibit will feature a multi-platform experience of a    delightful tale for kids of all ages.  <\/p>\n<p>    You can check out M Theory in all their real and virtual glory    at various events during Tech Week:  <\/p>\n<p>     Magnify VR\/AR Expo Summit, Monday 8 May  <\/p>\n<p>     Future Realities Conference, 11 and 12 May.  <\/p>\n<p>    Alternatively, visit <a href=\"http:\/\/www.mtheory.co.nz\" rel=\"nofollow\">http:\/\/www.mtheory.co.nz<\/a> or <a href=\"http:\/\/www.method.digital\" rel=\"nofollow\">http:\/\/www.method.digital<\/a> to find out more.  <\/p>\n<p>    Ends  <\/p>\n<p>    Content Sourced from scoop.co.nz    Original    url  <\/p>\n<p><!-- Auto Generated --><\/p>\n<p>Read more: <\/p>\n<p><a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"http:\/\/business.scoop.co.nz\/2017\/05\/08\/method-launches-specialist-augmented-and-virtual-reality-arm\/\" title=\"Method launches specialist augmented and virtual reality arm  - Scoop.co.nz (press release)\">Method launches specialist augmented and virtual reality arm  - Scoop.co.nz (press release)<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p> Press Release Method Design and Communications Auckland-based creative agency, Method, has launched a specialist augmented and virtual reality (AR and VR) arm, M Theory, to keep up with client demand and further invest in the technology.MEDIA RELEASE 8 May 2017 Method launches specialist augmented and virtual reality arm M Theory Auckland-based creative agency, Method, has launched a specialist augmented and virtual reality (AR and VR) arm, M Theory, to keep up with client demand and further invest in the technology.
