[Yasmin Elayat](http://elayat.com/?ref=killscreen.com) is a self-proclaimed ‘hybrid’—she’s a new-media documentarian, a creative technologist, a collaborative storyteller, and a spatial designer. She co-created [*#18DaysinEgypt*](http://beta.18daysinegypt.com/?ref=killscreen.com), a collaborative documentary centered on the Egyptian revolution; co-directed an interactive documentary set within the New York City subway system, [*Blackout*](http://elayat.com/gallery/blackout/?ref=killscreen.com)*,*  and [*Zero Days*](http://elayat.com/gallery/zero-days-vr/?ref=killscreen.com), a VR film about cyber warfare that won an Emmy for Original Approach in Documentary.

Along with James George and Alexander Porter, Yasmin is also the Co-Founder of [Scatter](https://www.scatter.nyc/?ref=killscreen.com), a New York-based entertainment studio that creates tools and collaborates with artists to ‘volumetric filmmaking:’ storytelling through immersive technologies. Scatter’s [Depthkit](https://www.depthkit.tv/?ref=killscreen.com) allows its users to create accessible storytelling experiences through 3D capture.

Here, Yasmin tells us about how working in a museum space led her to spatial and volumetric filmmaking, demystifying the role of creative technologist, and what it’s like to run a tech company fueled by creativity—one that continually redefines itself alongside its community.
