About me

I’m a VR creator driven by a passion for conservation. For nearly a decade, I’ve merged storytelling with cutting-edge technology to celebrate Africa’s natural wonders and cultural heritage. In 2016, I co-created “Exodus – The Great Migration,” one of the first fully narrated cinematic VR documentaries. Three years later, I introduced “Close Encounters,” a VR series spotlighting lions, elephants, and rhinos. This project is now evolving into a fulldome film slated for international release in 2025, offering an even more immersive window into Africa’s iconic wildlife. I also created “Sida Tsoatsoas,” a fulldome film blending live-action and animation to share the ǂKhomani people’s rich storytelling traditions. Meanwhile, “Umfula VR” explores water spirituality, Zulu culture, and environmental issues. As the director of VR Capture, I strive to push the boundaries of immersive media, crafting experiences that foster empathy and inspire positive change.
