V-U2 makes audiences feel like they're at the live show in an immersive experience that's only possible at Sphere. To create this larger-than-life concert film, Big Sky cameras captured the band at extraordinary scale, sharpness, and clarity. The concert film employs Sphere's immersive technologies including the 160,000 sq. ft. display plane, which at 16k x 16k resolution is the world's highest-resolution LED screen;  Sphere Immersive Sound, powered by HOLOPLOT, which provides crystal-clear sound to every seat in the house; and haptic seats, which use vibrations so guests can ‘feel' the experience. All of these technologies, used in ‘U2:UV Achtung Baby Live at Sphere,' will be leveraged in this Sphere Experience to reinforce the feeling of ‘being there.'

Launching a venue like Sphere challenged the band to create a once-in-a-lifetime audio/visual concert experience and the same standards were upheld for the film. Co-directors The Edge and Morleigh Steinberg spoke about the filmmaking process:
 
"The goal was to give the immersive movie goers as close to the live U2:UV concert experience as possible — and then some. I've never seen a U2 show. I'm so relieved I caught a great one," said The Edge.
 
"We knew all the tremendous capabilities of the technology, but we didn't know what to expect from the process of making this film.  The work became a true collaboration between band, artists, producers, and technology teams.  The end result is a cinematic experience that transports viewers into the energy and beauty of the live show," said Morleigh Steinberg.

V-U2 immortalizes the acclaimed 'U2:UV Achtung Baby Live At Sphere' show directed by Willie Williams. The film of the show was directed by The Edge and Morleigh Steinberg and produced by The Edge, Bono and Adam Clayton, along with producer Alan Moloney, in a unique collaboration with Sphere Entertainment.  Stefaan "Smasher" Desmedt, video director of the original show, served as associate director of the film. Music production was by Jacknife Lee and Joe O'Herlihy, the band's longtime director of sound. Sphere Studios' Andrew Shulkind served as Director of Photography and the film was edited by the Studios' Robert Rivers Malina. 

The launch of 'U2:UV Achtung Baby Live At Sphere' was a global news event which quickly became a pop culture moment and a must-see for music lovers everywhere.The show's stunning visuals and live music performance, combined with the venue's immersive technology, including the world's most advanced audio system, became a social media sensation as hundreds of thousands of fans shared their experience, making the show a global phenomenon.  One of the band's most ambitious creative projects, it saw them work once again with longtime creative collaborator and show director Willie Williams, artists including Es Devlin, John Gerrard and Marco Brambilla, and longtime partner and producer Brian Eno.
