How Craft created a first class visionOS experience from our existing code base (source)
An in depth walk-through of the development process for Craft. If you plan to develop for visionOS, don’t miss this one!
Looking back, porting the app to visionOS required significant efforts, but still it was much easier, realatively straightforward compared to what we expected. Almost everything worked out of the box, the OS provides beautiful defaults, and you really have to do only smaller scale adjustments to fit the platform. We see this target as something we can keep in our main codebase and release the new versions of Craft in line with our regular platforms.
Apple Vision Pro's Impact on Creative Industries (deadline.com)
An in-depth analysis of the Apple Vision Pro's potential to revolutionize creative industries, despite its high price and the slow release of compatible content. The device's capabilities in streaming, filmmaking, live events, and production settings are explored, highlighting its innovative features and challenges.
Filmmaking is a collaborative medium, and Vision Pro’s front-facing lenticular screen, which give a virtualized image of the user’s eye movements from the front of the headset, means the device doesn’t necessarily have to be removed for conversations to continue unhindered. The effect is not quite as pronounced as it appeared in Apple’s early teaser videos, with the device’s reflective front face making it more subtle than the company might have hoped, but it is a clever idea set for future enhancement.
