Ebola Outbreak:
A Virtual Journey
Collaborating with Frontline, I partnered with the Secret Location team to produce "Ebola Outbreak: A Virtual Journey." This immersive experience plunges viewers into the heart of the harrowing West African Ebola outbreak of 2014, witnessing the disease's rapid spread across the region. The narrative unfolds in Guinea, starting at the hollow tree, suspected to be the origin of the outbreak.
Utilizing VR as its primary platform, the project also encompasses traditional documentary formats and a 360-degree experience on Facebook, ensuring accessibility across diverse platforms. Through this multi-dimensional storytelling approach, we aimed to provide audiences with a comprehensive understanding of the outbreak's impact while fostering empathy and awareness on a global scale.
