I had the honor of managing production, directing the motion capture performance in Philadelphia, and overseeing filming inside VR for Blancoverse, an innovative project that reimagined Armani White’s artistry in a fully virtual world.
A standout feature of this production was the multiverse concept developed by my team. We designed eight unique environments that were live and accessible simultaneously. Users could seamlessly transition between these worlds through virtual portals, allowing them to explore diverse graphic settings while staying connected with their friends in the same virtual instance. This groundbreaking approach enhanced the sense of immersion and social interaction, offering audiences an experience that felt both dynamic and personal.
The integration of motion capture technology was another highlight, enabling Armani White’s electric performance to be faithfully recreated in the virtual space. By merging the vibrancy of a live show with the limitless potential of VR, we crafted a truly immersive and interactive experience.
Working with a brilliant team of creatives and technical experts, I ensured the production process was smooth and the visuals elevated Armani White’s music and energy. Blancoverse exemplifies how innovation and collaboration can push the boundaries of music and virtual storytelling.
