Immersive Exposure -a VR-native photography playground.
Hello devs 👋my name is Corey Reese. App Trailer I’m building Immersive Exposure, a VR-native creative sandbox that turns photography into an interactive, game-like experience inside VR. Instead of just watching tutorials or shooting static scenes, users step inside environments, control virtual cameras, lighting, and lenses, and photograph dynamic subjects in real time. The core idea is simple: Photography as play, exploration, and mastery not passive learning. Current focus Refining spatial interaction and camera feel so it’s intuitive for both creators and casual VR users. Adding mixed reality support, allowing users to practice with virtual models and lighting in their real spaces. Expanding NPC systems with AI so characters can respond, pose, and interact with voice commands. Designing repeatable engagement loops (photo challenges, exploration goals, unlockable environments). Right now we are fine tuning the camera UX so the camera controls feel good and respond as close to a real camera as possible with depth of field etc. The project started as an immersive training tool featuring real photographers 30+ shoots across fashion, boudoir, food, commercial, etc filmed in 8k VR180 so user can go behind the scenes on real shoots and has evolved into a creative playground for photographers who enjoy exploration, expression, and practicing anytime. I feel we have the same opportunity as Golf + who doubled down on real golf users but with the photography community. I’ll be posting development updates, experiments, and lessons learned here as things progress. Looking forward to learning from others building. If your interested in testing the alpha build I can send the link so I can get feedback. I've already identified a lot of things that need to be corrected. It's good to get some new eyes as well.21Views0likes0Comments
