About

The sun is shining, the birds are singing, there’s a spring in everybody’s step.
It’s a perfect day until Ella steps outside. Everywhere she goes it rains – is she going to ruin everyone’s day?
Rain or Shine is Nexus’ interactive 360° mobile VR short film made for Google Spotlight Stories. Directed by Felix Massie, Rain or Shine follows Ella, a charismatic young girl who loves being outside in the sunshine, but whenever she puts her sunglasses on all loveliness disappears – her very own raincloud appears above her head and showers her with unwanted rain. The story warmly illustrates Ella’s frustration in wanting to enjoy her day in the sunshine, and follows her amusing but futile attempts to dodge the rain.

Google Spotlight Stories: Rain or Shine reviews and comments

In Rain or Shine, we watch a little Girl receive a strange Gift. (Tested With HTC Vive) This 7-minute Short Story also dispenses with Dialogues, which is why Language Skills are not required. We experience the Story of the Girl Ella, who is sent a pair of mysterious Sunglasses. What she experiences with it, it's best to take a look at yourself. The animated Short film has really succeeded, the Music reflects the Mood great and it's really cute to watch. Even away from the Main Action around the little Girl are some nice details to discover, just great! Only the Vignettes to Avoid motion Sickness bothered me, I would have liked to have switched them off. Otherwise, as always a successful Product from Google Spotlight, get a picture for yourself ...

More Sun than Rain Rain or Shine is another, free Cartoon from the Google Spotlight Stories series. We accompany little Girl Ella, who is given a new Pair of sunglasses on a sunny Spring day. Yet whenever she puts the Thing on, a relentless, black Rain cloud pulls up right above her. From this Dilemma Develops a nice, about five-minute Story that takes us through Ella'S vividly designed Neighborhood. Sound Scenery, Animations and Staging have again succeeded well, even if in my Opinion the Scenario does not give quite as much as Google's Pearl. It also advertised Rain Or Shine as the most interactive Spotlight Story. But you can't expect too much here, because we as VR users continue to remain completely in the Spectator role. Controller input is therefore not required. IN my Opinion, FAZIT Rain or Shine is not the best Spotlight Story, but the vivid Story still justifies the free Download.

Google Spotlight Stories: Rain or Shine-kind and cute, short (5 minutes) VR mult. In the cartoon we will see the story of the Girl Ella, which brought the defective pink glasses, because putting on their world is not in pink colors, and vice versa causes cloudy weather and cold rain. But Our heroine is not embarrassed, and she went to have fun. Animation is made in cartoon style. In addition, since there is a 360 degree video, there is a pile of pashalok, in the form of events that occur not on the main stage (that is, not next to our girly), but somewhere behind the back, or on the sides, which gives the video "replay". The series is largely launched as a kind of advertising tools to create similar videos-Google Spotlight Stories. By the Way, to whom it is interesting, all films of a series in the same 360-degree variant, it is possible to find on their official page on YouTube. For example, this particular video here-Google Spotlight Stories: Rain or Shine. Although It is better to watch it using at least a mobile and analogue of Google Cardboards, but it is not necessary. As a result: a pleasant, kind cartoon. VR Owners should see for sure. Those who do not have it, but who loves such things, can see it on Yutuba. 8 rain from 10 http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1126011506 P.
