"Look Up" is a micro-short created during the intense, fast-paced sessions of the 2023 DGC's Virtual Production Workshop held in Vancouver. Facilitated by a collaboration with Virtual Production House (Vancouver), W.F. Whites, and ACTRA. Amongst a sea of visionaries, eight Canadian directors were selected for this matchless chance to breathe life into their stories, transforming them into virtual production shorts. In a heart-thumping two-hour time span on set, each director encapsulated their unique tales.

Crafted in the fascinating realm of a Virtual Production Stage (Volume), the audience journeys to a New York subway station. Here, we encounter two twenty-something individuals, deeply engrossed in their digital facades, as they grapple with the modern-day anguish of losing social media followers. Their relentless pursuit of virtual validation is abruptly disrupted by the entrance of a wise puppeteer. His riveting performance brilliantly paints a powerful metaphor, illuminating the essence of life juxtaposed against the pervasive influence of technology.
