Virtual Reality
in Rugby
Virtual Reality and 360° Video are a transformative fit for sports broadcasting, fan engagement, and professional training — placing fans directly on the field with the players.
Candid 360° Rugby Video Shoot // South Africa01 / Sports 360° Field Experiments
Candid 360° shoots.
Pitch-side immersion.
Virtual Reality and 360° Video are a natural fit for sports. We conducted a series of candid 360° video experiments across South African rugby teams — capturing training sessions with the Lions, the Sharks, and the Cheetahs.
These candid field shoots proved that when planned strategically, 360° camera systems allow sports fans to feel as if they are standing inside the stadium alongside the players during crucial drills and scrums.
We assist South African sports federations, teams, and broadcasters with the end-to-end know-how to produce cutting-edge 360° broadcast coverage, fan activations, and immersive training simulations.
