Description

At KALEIDOSCOPE our mission is to give independent artists and studios the resources they need to do great work. An invite-only community, we bring together creators, investors, and industry leaders to help fund the next wave of great immersive art and entertainment projects. Founded in 2014 by designers René and Selena Pinnell, Kaleidoscope produced the first virtual reality festival earning coverage in leading publications such as The New York Times, VICE, and The LA Times. Partnering with Wired and Oculus, Kaleidoscope went on to produce a successful World Tour and later the DevLab content accelerator. Today, Kaleidoscope plays a central role in the artistic renaissance of virtual reality, with over $14MM raised by Kaleidoscope supported projects including the first seven-figure deal for a VR film at Sundance. With a commitment to creative exploration, Kaleidoscope has backed some of our industry’s most groundbreaking work including the animated VR film BATTLESCAR, starring Rosari
