BARCELONA—BaDoinkVR has teamed up with Berlin-based sex doll creator Kokeshi Cybrothel Berlin for “Kokeshi,” an upcoming virtual reality release starring Finnish actress Angie Lynx, available free in 7K VR from Dec. 22 through Jan. 9, 2022.
In the scene, shot and produced in Barcelona, BaDoinkVR and Kokeshi aim to give users a taste of the intimacy and realism of a futuristic cyber brothel. For more, visit badoink.com/kokeshi.
In October of 2021, the Kokeshi Cybrothel team flew to Barcelona to shoot a VR scene featuring their futuristic sex doll and Lynx. The scene transports the user to a futuristic brothel in which their desire shifts between a humanoid sex worker and a living human, portrayed by Lynx.
Created by Berlin-based writer Alexis Smiley Smith, Austrian filmmaker Phillip Fussenager, and Sujmo, an artist and creative director from Cologne, Kokeshi Cybrothel uses their narrative design aesthetics in developing the scene.
“We’re creating this other layer of reality that's super textured with sci-fi and a kind of futuristic landscape,” Smith said. “You're actually having this kind of user experience where you're in the VR world interacting with Angie Lynx.”
To merge the experiences of humanoid and human interaction, BaDoinkVR used a mix of practical effects and post-production techniques, along with a high-definition projector to coordinate complex transitions between the sci-fi world and the “real world” in the scene.
“We are coordinating shooting the same shot with two cameras and then mixing them through a physical projector that we're putting some graphics on top of the actress,” said director Lucas Elliot. “We are using stereoscopic cameras, so we can see how the physicality of the graphics affects the environment.”
