Oxford University X Viewsonic Gaming
Documentary
Overview
ViewSonic has partnered with Oxford University first ever Esports Team ‘OUGES’ to establish the first dedicated esports suite among Oxford colleges. We documented this unexpected initiative that transforms a former IT room into a state-of-the-art facility equipped with ViewSonic's top of the line gaming monitors and interactive displays. In the rapidly growing world of Esports, Oxford wants to come out ontop. This collaboration reflects a growing trend of incorporating esports into higher education, preparing students for opportunities in the digital economy.

We set out to capture the passion and dedication behind a sport that remains largely unrecognised: competitive esports. While spending time on set with the players, we witnessed their commitment firsthand and began to understand the full scope of their vision. The Oxford University Gaming and Esports Society (OUGES) are pioneers—championing an unexpected new discipline at one of the world’s most prestigious universities. Our goal was to challenge the stigma surrounding gaming and show why Oxford has invested so significantly in it. The answer? Esports fosters critical 21st-century skills like teamwork, strategic thinking, and digital literacy.
