Apple reveals seven new Immersive Videos coming soon to Vision Pro

Today Apple Vision Pro owners gained access to a new MotoGP documentary in Immersive Video and the latest episode of Wildlife. Alongside the releases, Apple has announced seven more Immersive debuts coming soon for Vision Pro.

Apple Immersive Video lineup includes seven upcoming releases

Apple Immersive Video has long been seen as one of Vision Pro’s most unique and compelling features. It enables 180-degree entertainment experiences that are impossible to replicate with a TV home theater setup.

Today Apple debuted a new MotoGP documentary in Immersive Video and a Wild Life episode focused on orangutans.

The company also detailed seven new Immersive Videos that are coming soon:

  • Experience Paris by The Explorers: “discover the quiet precision of a three-Michelin-star kitchen, ascend to breathtaking heights atop the city’s most iconic tower, and experience the timeless charm of Montmartre’s historic streets”
  • A Night at the BBC Proms: “Pianist Lukas Sternath makes his BBC Proms debut performing Edvard Grieg’s Piano Concerto in A minor with the BBC Symphony Orchestra and their chief conductor, Sakari Oramo”
  • Journey to Antarctica to Find Emperor Penguins with CNN: ”CNN’s chief climate correspondent, Bill Weir, joins a scientific expedition to Antarctica, bringing audiences into unbelievable proximity with emperor penguins”
  • Julaymba from PHORIA: “Alive with waterfalls, glowing fungi, and the calls of cassowaries, this UNESCO World Heritage Site will completely immerse viewers”
  • CORTIS (Color Outside The Lines) from HYBE: “Step inside the world of CORTIS, the newest K-pop boy band from BIGHIT MUSIC, the label behind iconic global groups like BTS”
  • World of Red Bull: “In “Backcountry Skiing,” audiences are transported into the wilderness of Revelstoke, British Columbia, where the world’s top freeskiers push their limits on remote, untouched slopes”
  • Elevated: “Tim Robbins guides viewers above Maine, sweeping over rugged coastlines, pristine lakes, and forests bursting with fall’s fiery palette of orange, crimson, and gold”

Third parties helping Apple Immersive Video content library grow

With the exception of Elevated, all of the forthcoming releases above come from third-party organizations.

That’s notable because in its young life so far, the Apple Immersive Video format has been slow to produce new content. But Apple has been working to give third parties the tool to create their own videos tailored for Vision Pro, and now those efforts are starting to pay off.

Apple says: “These new films are among the first to be captured with Blackmagic Design’s URSA Cine Immersive camera and edited on Mac using DaVinci Resolve Studio.”

Blackmagic’s CEO offered the following quote:

“Apple Immersive Video is one of the most exciting storytelling formats we’ve ever seen, and we’re proud that Blackmagic tools are helping bring it to life,” said Grant Petty, Blackmagic Design’s CEO. “With the URSA Cine Immersive camera and DaVinci Resolve Studio, filmmakers can capture the world in incredible detail and realism, and then edit, grade, mix, and deliver their vision to audiences in exciting new ways. This really is the beginning of a whole new era for filmmaking.”
