  "60 Seconds in My Life" was completed by 124 photographers from 32 provinces, municipalities and autonomous regions across the country. From the perspective of ordinary people, the film uses VR technology to record a 360-degree panoramic view of the epidemic period at 10 am on February 20, 2020. Every one of us around us seems to be a daily but meaningful minute.

  The production of the entire film relies on social media and network sharing, as well as the world's leading VR content platform VeeR. In an era when "maintaining social distance" has become the norm in society, "60 Seconds of My Life" connects each other's lives in a virtual space and perpetuates this shared human memory.
