Three VR For Good Projects Premiering At SXSW

The Evolution of Testicles

Ryan Hartsell + Male Cancer Awareness Campaign

A testicular romp through the evolution of man told via CGI, a giant testicle-shaped hot air balloon, and narrator Chris O’Dowd (Bridesmaids, Molly’s Game)—all in the name of bringing awareness to male cancer prevention.

One Eighty

Eren Aksu + Commonwealth Human Rights Initiative

The story of an Indian mother, Vijai Kumari, who spent 20 years behind bars, and her son, Kanhaiya Kumari, who was born in prison—and their quest to clear their names and live in freedom.

Authentically Us: We’re Still Here

Jesse Ayala + Pride Foundation

Aiden Crawford, a Two-Spirit artist and historian in Boise, Idaho, struggles to preserve and revive his heritage in a race against time. Part of Authentically Us—a trilogy from FOVRTH Studios.

By tapping into the experiential nature of VR, these powerful pieces connect with their audiences on a visceral level to spread awareness of important issues facing our society. We can’t wait to share the finished projects with the world.
