- The idea to use a 360º camera (in all directions) doesn't take away

before you start to "take some shots".

Actually, I think the right way to see it is that composers must engage
with the aesthetic "idea" of verisimilitude ... rather than merely aiming
for it.

Everyone is like getting crazy because of the huge quantity of innocuous
images running on our minds today.
I like the way cinema is, as a collective & subjective experience on the
same place.
I just don´t want our kids to be addicted to isolation & depression any
more.
And don´t tell me it´s about us as "parents", because that´s what I´m
trying to state here:
We just can´t keep exploring or experimenting with our minds to see what
happens, just because we want... what?. (you tell me)

Sorry, it was a mistake... as VR on cinema. (maybe not for cinema a
Hollywood wants it...)
It is very improbably that most or even many future films will be
produced in 360º form, because you lose fundamental elements like <
perspective > and any < viewing selection/direction > the director would
like to employ.. Film directors wouldn't know exactly what kind of the
scene film watchers would chose to see, etc. IMO this is still and
everywhere experimental stuff...
Nevertheless, it is not up to me or you to decide what kind of concepts
film directors "should" have and which not.
You could say they < try > to cross cinema and VR. This might work or
not. What is important is that the artistical result is convincing, not the
technique per se. (I am not comfortable to judge anything I didn't see or
experience myself. So I am kind of sceptical, but still open to change my
mind. On the other hand I won't tell anybody that VR movies are supposed to
be < the next big thing > if not a single movie exists. Fair enough...)
Best,
Stefan
