Nelson shares how his passion for handcrafted storytelling and cutting-edge virtual reality tech converged to form a new kind of educational experience. One that’s high-resolution, photorealistic, and built for shared awe. From 360-degree dinosaur encounters to deep dives into exoplanets and human anatomy, Hammer & Anvil is bringing theater-level immersion to museums everywhere.
💡 Immersive Education That Fits Any Footprint
Hammer & Anvil focuses exclusively on museums and science centers, offering them plug-and-play VR theaters that deliver world-class experiences with minimal space and maximum wow. Unlike solitary VR setups, their shared immersive theaters let up to 20 visitors explore synchronized, cinematic journeys together, complete with 3D spatial sound and emotional depth. What sets them apart? Their content-first philosophy, deep production values, and dedication to storytelling. From scanning real fossils to CGI reconstructions of ancient worlds, their “filmmakers-first” approach blends storytelling craftsmanship with technical wizardry to create unforgettable museum exhibits. With a growing content library and a focus on educational impact and access, Hammer & Anvil is leveling the playing field for institutions of all sizes.
