iAnimal brings the cruelty of the animal agriculture industry to the public through virtual reality. By infiltrating farms and slaughterhouses with 360-degree cameras, investigators allow viewers to have a unique perspective inside the lives of farmed animals. A team of 16 investigators have filmed in over 20 factory farms and 5 slaughterhouses in Mexico, Spain, Italy, Germany, and the United Kingdom to capture this footage. This work has been featured on CNN, BBC, and NPR, and appeared at the 2016 Sundance Film Festival and the German House of Representatives. As part of the iAnimal Outreach Tour, thousands of students have seen behind the walls of this industry for the very first time. |
