Nordisk Film TV is the Next to Embrace AR in Your Body Uncovered Denmark

27 September, 2023

Media and entertainment powerhouse, Banijay, today announces Nordisk Film TV Denmark, part of Banijay Nordic, will produce Your Body Uncovered for DR. This deal marks the first international adaption for the ground-breaking format originally created by Banijay UK’s Remarkable Factual.

In the Danish version of this factual series, patients meet with well-known host, Peter Qvortrup Geisling, who previously trained as a doctor, journalist, and health correspondent for DR1, to discuss their illnesses and treatment. For many, these ongoing conditions are invisible to the naked eye but now using incredible augmented reality technology, HoloLens patients are given the opportunity for a mind-blowing medical consultation with professionals in the field. These mesmerising graphics are made by the Danish animation studio, Copenhagen-Bombay. Meanwhile, host and trained psychologist Josephine Høgh spends time with the patients’ relatives and listens to their experiences.

Ulrik Jørgensen CEO Nordisk Film TV Denmark says: “We all know how extraordinary the body is, and we were immediately gripped by the idea of being able to see exactly what is happening. We are looking forward to showcasing this cutting-edge technology and providing an incredible insight into the bodies of Danes. Peter Qvortrup Geisling and Josephine Høgh are the perfect hosts with their experience in scientific fields, presenting and most importantly, empathy.”

Lucas Green, Chief Content Officer, Operations at Banijay adds: “We are continually learning about the ways in which technology can enhance content and Your Body Uncovered is a perfect example. Remarkable Factual used AR, tapping into their experience in Your Home Made Perfect and Your Garden Made Perfect to create an innovative, engaging, interesting, and warm show. It is great to see a fresh new adaptation bringing this ground-breaking storytelling to a Danish audience.”
