I just watched the new short MLS Apple soccer spatial/immersive video on my #VisionPro that came out tonight. Some scenes are viscerally great (e.g., crowds, shots on goal), some quick cuts in viewpoint are jarring since I feel physically disoriented / displaced from one location to another. No good plot since just separate scenes. I missed having slow motion / multiple viewing angle instant replay. Sports viewing is next level this way, but it needs lots of experimentation. I'd love to see various takes of the same sport, the same action.
@danb I also wonder if older eyes like yours and mine are more susceptible to disorientation. Even if true, for an age agnostic event like sports, there needs to be a happy medium. Leave disorientation to popular music videos.
@michaelslade It may be what we have been trained on. Also, it's not just less-sharpness in vision, it's multiprocessing of cues from what we are seeing. In old graphical games terms, as I have found as we age, we can track fewer sprites simultaneously.
@danb What you say about sprites is interesting. Over the history of film and television it seems shots have gotten shorter and our acceptance of brief shots has increased. Younger audiences can probably process fast sequences I can’t or won’t.
