Sanctuary for Sea Dogs

A fly-on-the-wall documentary that drops audiences into a day spent working with seals. Made in the early days of immersive capture, we pushed a 360° camera beyond its intended use to deliver a stereoscopic 3D 180° production, before the hardware to do so existed.

Dive into the heartwarming world of A Sanctuary for Sea Dogs, a short VR film that brings you face-to-face with rescued seals and the dedicated people who fight to protect them. Meet Dennis and Clemency, two passionate team members at a coastal seal sanctuary, and discover the incredible stories behind the pups in their care. Follow the journey from rescue to rehabilitation, witnessing the daily efforts of staff as they clean, feed, and nurse these vulnerable animals back to health. Learn about the environmental threats facing marine wildlife-from plastic pollution to human interference-and what we can all do to help. Understand the costs involved in saving a single seal, and join Dennis and Clemency on the shoreline for the emotional release of a rehabilitated pup back into the wild. Beautiful, moving, and eye-opening, this immersive experience reveals the true meaning of compassion and conservation.
