Sorano Kanata(Digital Hollywood University Graduate School)
This is a multiverse experiential content that allows the audience to experience the story in three ways during the course of the play: "novel game", "live-action video" and "experiential theater".
The immersion level of the audience gradually increases as the still characters in the "novel game" begin to move in the "live-action video" and appear realistically in front of them in the "experiential theater.
It was wonderful to see how she not only planned the event, but also did everything herself, from the venue to casting and publicity. I thought that what she learned at Digital Hollywood was expressed in her planning and multiverse work, as well as her attention to detail in the setting.
Erika Suto(DENTSU INC. Planner / Art Director)
The story and lighting were wonderful, making effective use of the limited space inside the Japanese storehouse.Even the publicity was finely crafted, and I think it was a very worthwhile work that boldly took on the challenge even during the pandemic.
