He's also helped build content for the Leia 3D holographic display and worked out how to create a theme park-size XR experience. Robert talks about his career so far, the numerous companies he’s worked for, including Digital Domain, The Mill and Magnopus, and how he’s wrangled multiple content creation platforms into working with one another.
