Seed to Stage: How the Metaverse Powered a Musical

Description:

Imagine the Metaverse at your fingertips with some of the most powerful tools to bring your production to the stage. Navigating the changing landscape of theatrical venues is full of complexity, but innovating the production pipeline can provide solutions. The forthcoming rock opera, Judgment Day, is the first NFT funded musical production being brought to the stage. We will explore new production paths; from fundraising with NFTs, to concepting with AI and to rehearsing in Virtual Reality venues. By using Metaverse tools and emerging technologies creators can reach today’s audiences.
