Holographic Mixed/Virtual/Augmented Reality
Augmented Reality cinematic Design. Visual fx- Sound fx. Holographic interactive.
Metaverse. I have been keeping up with holographic technology. Companies like ILMxLAB , Microsoft Hololens, Magic Leap partnered with WETA, Unity, Unreal Engine, Occipital (Structure Sensor), Oculus. The innovative mixed reality storytelling capabilities is compelling. I envision a immersive theme park story unfolding at Big Box Home Improvement sized stores.
Had an epiphany walking through IKEA store with its maze like path. As if everything in entire store was 3D mapped. Every section forward was a game level or story scene. All the furniture appliances was props in interactive game or movie. Mixed reality with quality ILM story and effects, Set design and Legacy Effects (http://legacyefx.com/) animatronic talking lifeforms, interactive real life moving set trash bins, mixed with high quality interactive CGI creatures and 3D favorite stars. An immersive experience worthy of great storytelling.
Each scene (section of store) has a chapter in a flowing story. Yet it has a beginning, middle and end. Points earned or story plot revealed. Interactive Scenes from movies untold stories, Harry Potter, Straight Outta Compton, Lord of the Rings, Iron Man, Fast and Furious, Star Wars and independent storytelling.
Interactive smell (of pizza, bar b cue) temperature/weather, floor seismic activity. Surround sound theme music. An individual or group experience that they will go tell they friends about, laugh, cry, be angry, enjoy, feel great about. Their experience, their story. A large IKEA sized warehouse theme park, mixed reality. Relivable, replayable enjoyable challenging exerperience.
With advanced Augmented Realithy glasses like Magic Leap creating a compelling Metaverse Mixed Reality story. At home staring at a table I envisioned scenes from movies being Streamlined to my augmented glasses like a High quality Holographic play. Transitioning from scene to scene.
There is a scene in a old movie where mythological gods surrounded a table or fountain looking down watching a mythological character on their journey. Also like the scenes in Avatar and Hunger games where the actors were looking at a large table with a Holograhic representation of the main locations (large tree, dome death match).
I plan on developing with Microsoft Hololens (SDK) and Magic Leap (SDK) when they do ship. I am teaching myself Unity3D, Blender, After Effects, and more. I would like to explore these capabilities NOW in telling a creative futuristic or modern day stories. I am up for the challenge.
