NBC News has launched a new experimental video unit, NBC Left Field, aimed at “understanding human beings through film, technology and heaps of creativity.”

The global video unit, staffed by individuals from more than half a dozen countries, uses high-gloss video to immerse viewers in the lives of individuals in extraordinary situations around the globe.

The nation-hopping storytellers craft short explainers, features, documentaries, using both smart camera techniques and even mixed reality, all while helping viewers understand others in exceptional situations.

From mixed reality explainers that pull VR into the real world to half-hour documentaries in the Southeast Asia, NBC Left Field uses punchy, beautifully-designed and edited videos to connect individuals across borders and cultures.
