24. Apple Vision Pro: The Future of Filmmaking?

One month ago, Apple released the Vision Pro augmented reality headset.
Today, we're using it to pull focus.
In this video, we discuss a camera assistant's requirements and challenges on set, and how Vision Pro can solve those problems.
From testing to using it in production, we'll show you our workflow, budget, and even 1st AC Amritha Mary's thoughts on why this could be the future of pulling focus on set.
Do you think the Vision Pro could serve a role in future productions? Let us know your thoughts in the comments, we're always deriving inspiration from your feedback. Don't forget to subscribe and follow our journey in building the future of workflow.
