En 2015 et 2016, White Fox Pictures a eu l’immense privilège de partager la vie d’un groupe de scientifiques Européens hors du commun travaillant dans 6 pays différent mais ayant un seul et même but : lever les mystères de la planète la plus proche de nous : Vénus.
Notre responsabilité était de retranscrire ces deux années sous la forme d’une web série documentaire de 6 x 10 minutes, d’une série de 12 pastilles #NEWS permettant aux chercheur d’enregistrer des “log” eux mêmes directement devant une webcam ou un téléphone et enfin d’un film en 360° VR permettant aux spectateurs de se retrouver littéralement plongé au coeurs des télescopes d’Hawaii et de Vénus !
Ce projet, géré par l’Observatoire de Paris, a été financé par l’Union Européenne.
