"The Walking Dead: Battle for Survival interactive shooter 3-D dark ride would feature animatronic figures, physical sets, digital projections and special effects." There's a great potential, but this is pushing "players"' involvment to the next level. We're definitely at the turning point in terms of engagement in physical / digital worlds.

The next game from the developers behind 'Monument Valley' is a dream-like VR adventure.
siobhan-o-flynn's insight:
'So Land's End is a single-player game, then, but one that's meant for sharing. It's short, even by mobile standards, with roughly an hour's worth of gameplay in total. Ustwo envisions players taking in the game over a few sessions -- "I think only me and my girlfriend have played it all in one sitting," said Wong. "It's not really intended for that. ... We're totally aiming for a very casual audience. Anyone that could possibly be interested in VR, come check out Land's End."'

Halo 5’s expanded universe elements pull from such a wide variety of stories it’s hard to explain them all. Master Chief’s Blue Squad is the same team from The Fall of Reach, First Strike, and Ghosts of Onyx, which also catalogued Catherine Halsey’s fall from grace from ONI science chief to war criminal. The direct contrast to these stories though, is that reviewer after reviewer insists the Chief and his team have zero personality....

"We learned we needed to adjust the way we talk to Snapchat’s audience, because they detect when it’s advertising," says Coca-Cola North America content SVP Emmanuel Seuge. The company’s ads repurposed from TV and other social networks performed poorly during Snapchat’s Live Story for the NCAA Final Four tournament. The soda brand continued working "hand in hand" with Snapchat to develop more ad programs; not long ago, as part of Snapchat’s back-to-high-school Story featuring scenes from kids’ first day of classes, the completion rate for a Snapchat-exclusive 10-second Coke spot shot up to 54%.

"Tokyo Reverse" is a clip from a 9-hour film that's all in reverse and seriously mind-boggling.
siobhan-o-flynn's insight:
Very cool: "The video is simple but entertaining, as the subject walks through Tokyo city centers, side streets, and even glides up an escalator to overlook a sprawling shopping pavilion. According to the BBC, the full 9-hour video premiered on French TV on March 31st in a segment called Slow TV. One French publication, Le Monde,went so far as to describe the project as a "small revolution." That same article noted that the actor took dance classes to make his movements look natural." |
