When we sit down every two years to watch the Olympics, we see the finished product. Lost among the gold, silver and bronze can be the 365-day training regimens that these athletes follow. Thanks to the Olympic Channel‘s new series, Trending Gold (produced by Jaunt), viewers will develop a greater appreciation for the behind-the-scenes work.
What makes Trending Gold special is the fact that it is filmed entirely in 360-degree virtual reality. Why exactly 100 percent VR?
“We wanted to provide viewers both the access and first-hand experience of what it means to be an Olympian,” Nicolas Delloye, Commissioning Editor for the Olympic Channel, said in an interview with Jaunt.
