The EYE VR-app allows you to experience the virtual reality-films of EYE on your smartphone. Take a look on a film set or wander through the EYE Filmmuseum in Amsterdam without ever taking a single step in the building. FILM SET EXPERIENCE In this MovieZone VR-film you suddenly find yourself on a film set, as an actress is raised by ropes and the director gives his final instructions. You can select a key figure - the director, sound engineer, lighting technician or the cameraman -, and they will explain exactly what they do on set. The wonders of virtual reality go hand in hand with the magic of film. EYE IN VIRTUAL REALITY Thanks to EYE in virtual reality, the film museum EYE in Amsterdam is open day and night: this experience gives you a 360 degree tour of the entire building. Take a look in the cinemas and admire the spectacular view over the river IJ. With EYE in virtual reality, you will experience film in a completely new way. EYE & VR As a leading film museum, EYE wants to be a guide to the world of cinema and the art of the moving image. And that mission does not stop at the silver screen. That’s why a pioneer like EYE also embraces and explores new technologies and new forms of filmmaking. Ever since the Lumière brothers invented film, the medium has constantly been driven forward by technological developments (such as colour and sound film, or digital visual effects), and EYE regards virtual reality an exciting next step.
