With strong financial backing at home and a thriving tech sector, Taiwanese filmmakers are dominating the immersive format: 'No other country manifests such a commitment in VR.'

Ting Hsiao-Ching, chairwoman of the Taiwan Creative Content Agency , a well-funded industry support organization established in June 2019 by Taiwan’s Ministry of Culture, cites several overlapping factors driving the territory’s success in immersive content creation. “Taiwan is the largest semi-conductor producer in the world and a leader in hardware manufacturing, so our creators really embrace technology — they’re not afraid to experiment,” Ting says.

Through a series of grants, TAICCA and other Taiwanese funding bodies have provided much of the monetary support that artists need to produce these daring and time-consuming vr projects, since the immersive storytelling industry still remains in an early stage of commercial development.

“No other country manifests such a commitment in vr as Taiwan,” says Venice VR Expanded Programmer Michel Reilhac. “We also want to commend the fact that there’s an incredible diversity in styles and genres that have been produced for this year,” he adds.
