Narratives
MUSIC OF THE SPHERES (2016)
Writer, Director, & Editor
Music of the Spheres is an innovative live action virtual reality series shot exclusively using a 360 degree camera; allowing viewers the ability to become active participants in the story. It is the first series to completely tell its story using 360 degree technology; blazing a new trail for motion picture storytelling.
The story follows Angela who is on a quest to save her long lost sister. To accomplish her goal she needs to locate the pieces of a time-altering mystical weapon known as the Music of the Spheres in a world dictated by the teachings of the ancient philosopher Pythagoras. Time is running out too. Angela’s journey has begun to open the gates between the worlds and if she’s not quick an invasion of ancient mythic beings could destroy the balance in the multiverse forever.
Honors:
- Invited to be a part of inaugural SIFF X multimedia festival, May 2016
