Students in a Georgia institution that were among the first to experiment with virtual reality have just had a premier of their first VR musical. The project undertaken at the Savannah College of Art and Design brought together 116 people from 14 different programs over the course of 20 weeks to create a 360-degree narrative, "Say It With Music."
The story is set in a restaurant and follows "an unexpected romantic connection between two servers." As a SCAD website about the project explains, viewers use sound cues to drive the narrative and can experience a 360-degree perspective that captures multiple plot lines.
