The format behind immersiX
V-Nova PresenZ, is a Lumiere Award-winning format that combines PresenZ format and V-Nova's point-cloud compression. It is set to revolutionize story telling in VR by offering users cinematic photorealism and six degrees of freedom for real-time navigation in pre-rendered scenes, breaking free from static viewpoints and ensuring full immersiveness.
The format also allows for the re-mastering of existing asset libraries using standard production workflows, for which several plug-ins are already available.

impactX is a comprehensive framework developed by V-Nova Studios to empower filmmakers in mastering the art of volumetric storytelling through the revolutionary PresenZ format. This framework is a carefully designed set of design principles, guidelines, rules, and production pipeline suggestions, aimed at helping filmmakers fully exploit the immersive potential of volumetric movies.
By exploiting impactX, creators can enhance key immersive elements such as movement, exploration, tracking, comfort, perspective shifts, mixed reality integration, and interaction.
These design principles are critical for crafting deeply engaging experiences that allow viewers to explore cinematic worlds in unprecedented ways.
With impactX, we offer not only a set of best practices but also a visionary guide to pushing the boundaries of cinematic storytelling in XR. From concept to distribution, our production pipeline suggestions streamline the process of creating volumetric movies, ensuring that every stage of production, from scriptwriting to final edits, aligns with the unique opportunities that PresenZ offers.
Through this approach, impactX empowers filmmakers and co-producers, including major studios like Disney, to tell stories that transcend traditional formats, redefining the future of cinema.

Ah, it's astonishing! It’s astonishing to see so much detail and precision in the images. It feels like being inside the image, inside the film. It's amazing.
Linda
I wanted to touch things but that was the only thing that held me back and realizing: “Ohh, Linda, OK, you're not on this planet.” It's just so different from the cinema. I’m curious now. Very curious. So life-like!
Sebastian
I really liked the way that the fish were going above me, and even a shark that came right in front of my face! I've actually been going scuba diving in the summer in the past years and this was like the closest thing to actually scuba diving that I've ever experienced in my life.
Matias
I thought it would be [something] for my son, but it seemed that it was something that I like too, because I felt, I saw things that I had not been able to see with any other visualization system. It was like being there. I wanted to touch things: animals, objects, textures, things that I could not imagine. It was truly unforgettable.
It was so realistic, and I felt like I was transported into a whole new world. The details, like the sounds, the movement, everything is just, it feels like I'm immersed. This is the next level of technology, the next level of film. This is the next level of experiencing things. It is the next level for us and I am so excited.
