Walt Disney Studios released “Through Mowgli’s Eyes,” a Virtual Reality experience hitting the AMC Theaters in Mission Valley this weekend!

The bare necessities is not the theme of the live-action remake of the classic Disney movie, “The Jungle Book.”  This time around, 21st Century creatures are getting the full tech treatment starting with a 360 video and virtual reality experience now playing in select IMAX and AMC theaters.

Yesterday The Walt Disney Studios released an interactive 360 video and virtual reality experience tied to the upcoming live action film The Jungle Book exclusively on Facebook. Viewers will be placed in Mowgli’s shoes as he meets Kaa for the very first time in “Through Mowgli’s Eyes Part 1: Trust in Me,” which debuted on The Jungle Book Facebook page yesterday and will also be available as a virtual reality experience in select IMAX theaters at AMC locations across the country beginning today.

The simultaneous release of a virtual reality experience and 360 video on Facebook is unprecedented, and in the weeks leading up to the film’s debut additional content will transport audiences deeper into the world of The Jungle Book. To ensure the experience remains authentic to the film, director Jon Favreau oversaw production and direction of both experiences, working closely with the VFX companies who created the incredible characters and settings of the film.
