Experience Rio in the Round: EWTN WYD 360
Irondale, AL (EWTN) – It goes without saying that EWTN will be in Rio to provide the most complete live coverage of World Youth Day anywhere. But this year, that’s just the beginning! After you watch an event on television, we invite you to experience the event the next day in a completely new and interactive way.
EWTN WYD 360 utilizes a special immersive technology that will be exclusive to EWTN during WYD. EWTN WYD 360 will film each event using a special camera with 11 lenses. Watch the event again and use your mouse to see it from every angle!
Stand on the stage with the Holy Father during the Welcome Ceremony or be in the middle of the audience during the same event. Experience the miles long Stations of the Cross as if you were there. Thrill to the Opening and Closing Masses, and so much more. You’ll see it all through this immersive, interactive streaming video.
You have to experience this cutting edge technology to believe it! EWTN will host this fabulous celebration on its Facebook page, www.facebook.com/ewtnonline, and website, www.ewtn.com, beginning July 22.
Best of all, by sharing the interactive video on Facebook, your friends will be able to see it in your own Facebook news stream! Watch it on our website, and up will pop a code that your webmaster or IT department can embed on your webpage so your followers can enjoy it too!
