The COVID-19 pandemic profoundly impacted large in-person events, forcing a shift to virtual platforms. Faced with this challenge, Dolby sought an innovative approach for their keynote presentation at the Game Developers Conference.
090 Media, rising to the occasion, enlisted Rick Markley of Aspect Multimedia as an Unreal Engine specialist. Markley collaborated remotely with a global team of experts to craft a unique virtual keynote for Dolby. The presentation leveraged cutting-edge technology, using performance captures of Dolby presenters to animate MetaHuman avatars within Unreal Engine. This resulted in a gamified version of the keynote, seamlessly blending technology and creativity to deliver an engaging virtual experience.
