A short film is shot inside virtual reality and finished with AI

Raül Torres has shared on LinkedIn a preview of “Buzz”, his new short film. He says he builds the sets in Blender and, wearing a Meta Quest 3 headset, steps into each scene and moves the camera as if he were inside it: he crouches, leans and follows the characters, with no keyboard or mouse.

These preliminary shots serve as the basis for generating the final images with AI afterwards. According to the author, the direction, pacing and camera movements come out of that phase, and feeling the space and distance from the inside changes how staging is thought about. What has been shared is only a preview: colour correction, sound design and editing are still to come.
