The creative technologists at 8i have developed a remarkable ongoing ethnographic documentary project that employs 3-D volumetric capture, and video recordings of their subjects, placing them in animated environments that reflect their respective backgrounds. Featuring Vine sensation Logan Paul as a gladiator, and Ashley Martin Scott delivering an emotional message to her baby, Reese, as we see her grow from a six-month to a one-year-old. Using volumetric 3-D video to bring real people into virtual reality, #100humans explores an unprecedented sense of presence that brings viewers a lifelike intimate experience.

As you use our Online Archives, please understand that the information presented from Festivals, Labs, and other activities is taken directly from official publications from each year. While this information is limited and doesn't necessarily represent the full list of participants (e.g. actors and crew), it is the list given to us by the main film/play/project contact at the time, based on the space restrictions of our publications. Each entry in the Online Archives is meant as a historical record of a particular film, play, or project at the time of its involvement with Sundance Institute. For this reason, we can only amend an entry if a name is misspelled, or if the entry does not correctly reflect the original publication.
