Imagining the Future of VR at Google

The search giant’s filmmaker on what the new medium does that film cannot.

by Jason Pontin February 14, 2017

Jessica Brillhart is the principal filmmaker for virtual reality at Google, where she enjoys one of the most creative jobs in Silicon Valley. She makes VR experiences (including World Tour, the first film made with Google’s Jump system, a circular 16-camera rig designed to capture VR films) and conventional movies (or “ flatties,” as she calls them), and she evaluates new VR technologies, such as Google’s own Cardboard, a cheap headset that works with smartphones. She spoke to MIT Technology Review’s editor in chief, Jason Pontin.

What does the principal filmmaker for VR at Google do?

I see the technologies we’re building at Google, specifically in VR. And I ask what I can do with them creatively. I mediate between the ­engineers and creative people, and I make stuff in the process.
