I'm so incredibly proud of the groundbreaking work that I have done with Kiira Benzing over the years, and particularly proud of our award-winning immersive VR theater piece, Finding Pandora X.
Four years ago, we launched Finding Pandora X at the Venice International Film Festival. It was a blend of live performance, immersive storytelling and gamified sequences in a branching narrative, all unfolding in real-time in VRChat.
Winning the first Lion Award for a VR Theatre production at Venice was a pivotal moment for Double Eye Studios. The award highlighted VR Theatre as a groundbreaking medium that connects audiences across distances. With the theme of "hope" at its core, this audience connection was particularly important as we all faced the challenges of a global pandemic.
If you've ever been curious to explore what went into the creation of Finding Pandora X, check out this all-new "Making of" and hear all about it from our talented actors, producers, developers, stage managers, and of course, Kiira and myself!
