Started Simulated Reality with a mission to create photorealistic environments and interactive digital holograms. I have worked on several productions using real actors performance captured by volumetric video. Buzz Aldrin VR, developed for 8i, and Jesus 7 Miracles, developed for HTC Vive Studios using 4DVIEWS, are the most recent work to receive awards for achievements in the Virtual and Augmented Reality fields. I have created virtual reality experiences that took users on trips to the Moon, Mars, Old Jerusalem and even a museum in Brazil, my hometown. I personally digitize environments using photogrammetry and laser scanning. I have created pipelines and managed multiple teams, from the ground up, to build games and interactive narratives in Hollywood for the last 10 years.My favorite volumetric tools are Reality Capture, Agisoft Photoscan, Houdini, Maya, and Substance Painter. Game engines like Unity and Unreal are used to place all the cool kids together in a smooth interactive narrative experience. I believe we are marching towards a revolution in the way content is created for the new generation of VR/AR/MR devices. The perfect storm is coming. It's time to focus on volumetric solutions for an amazing simulated reality, where we can feel like we can be anywhere we want - with the people we care.

Featured at SXSW (Austin, March 11-15), this 10 minutes experience, developed for 8i and Time Inc., combined multiple cutting-edge technologies to create a groundbreaking trip to the Moon and Mars using virtual reality. At The Art of VR (NYC, Sotheby's, June 22-23) and VR In The Sky (NYC, One World Trade Center, July 12-13) events I debuted two VR experiences. The NASA Apollo Museum and the Harold Lloyd Museum explore next generation Museums and the Future of Education subjects using virtual reality. Recently at Digital Hollywood (LA, October 11-12) and VR On The Lot (LA, October 13-14) Danilo unveiled a VR & AR piece created for Cirio de Nazare in Brazil.
