Finding new ways to demonstrate and utilise virtual reality is an ongoing process in the world of technology, but one new experiment shows it off in fine style.

Former Disney artist of 38 years Glen Keane strapped on the HTC Vive and used the 3D art app Tiltbrush to create life-sized 3D versions of some of his most famous characters.

The results are quite compelling.

The process forms part of a campaign to promote the Future of StoryTelling festival, an event at which Keane will speak about creativity and his own experiences.

The event also looks at how technology is changing the way stories are told, and there are set to be discussions on facial recognition technology among other things, while Microsoft, Facebook and Google are partners of the event.

The whole thing makes our stick figures look a bit rubbish.
