QUT partnered with The BMW Academy and Sydney film production company Vizion to engage acting and animation students in cutting-edge technology at the forefront of visual effects and virtual production. With access to a large studio space with a loading dock, the only facility of its kind in Queensland, BMW were able to bring a flagship M8 Competition Coupé into the space for immersion into imagined and augmented reality worlds that could be used in production across a huge variety of industries and applications.
