The Visual Media Conference (VMC) takes place on Tuesday 27 March at the Rose Bowl in Leeds. The event includes international experts on colour, communications, innovation in technology and asks the question ‘VR - so what?'

The question will be answered through an exploration of VR. Every delegate will be given their own VR goggles to keep and the chance to have a mass VR experience like no other, in the company of 200 plus like-minded inquisitors. San Francisco's finest, Jasper De Tarr, is being flown in to give the adventurous an opportunity to step into the surreal ‘green screen world' of mixed reality live content. Jasper is the CEO of Raktor, an immersive XR projection mapping company, whose ‘green screen' magic will replicate the special effects of The Lord of the Rings.
