Virtual Reality
I hold a Master’s degree in English Literature with a focus on Storytelling in Virtual Reality. I wrote about the process from both an academic viewpoint as well as from that of an actor in my Medium articles. I also reviewed several XR Theatre productions for XRMust magazine. My socials: Twitter , Instagram and LinkedIn.
Below are the most recent projects I am working on in VR:
Video Poetry in VR:
I decided to throw caution to the wind and share with the world some video poetry I created during the pandemic. The idea is mostly just to market my voice-over skills, but I also thought it would be interesting to place the videos in a virtual gallery. You can walk amongst my poems here: https://www.spatial.io/s/Meditations-from-South-Africa-66659347acc71770f80472de?share=2147676422413510576 Below is one of ten poems available.
Rise of Atlantis:
I was asked to do live voice-over narration for Rise of Atlantis, a multi-player adventure world and a live-narrated poem in the new social VR platform, Resonite, for up to 10 players. We were nominated for “Best Immersive Experience 2023”. Below is a short trailer for this performance and world:
The MetaMovie presents: Alien Rescue
I am part of an international acting ensemble performing in The Metamovie Presents: Alien Rescue, a feature-length partly-improvised theatre performance accessible in Virtual Reality. As a cast member since 2019, I’ve witnessed our company grow from strength to strength, winning several awards in the process.
We are currently performing the show every Saturday at 2pm EST in Resonite. Tickets are available here. The show can also be viewed as a Desktop experience or via our Twitch Stream.
VR Awards 2022 – VR Experience of the year.
Raindance Immersive 2021 – Best Immersive Experience, honourable mention for Best Multi-player experience.
Venice VR Expanded 2020 – In competition, received an honourable mention.
For a sense of how amazing this project is, please view this introduction to the project from our director, Jason Moore:
