Description
As marketers, creatives, business owners, and entrepreneurs, we know the importance of telling stories that are impactful and engage potential customer's emotions. Imagine being able to engage your audience on a dramatically deeper level. Imagine being able to bring your potential customers into an experience rather than passive content. With Virtual and Augmented Reality this is possible!
At this point, you are probably aware of Virtual and Augmented Reality technologies and their dramatic rise in popularity and adoption. However, you may feel unsure of where your place is in all of it.
If you are not on the 'techie' side of things, how do you cross over your knowledge about marketing and storytelling to the new medium of immersive technology? This class will help you navigate your way through this question. The truth is skilled storytellers and marketers are VITAL to the success of any VR/AR project.
Key Concepts We Will Explore in This Class:
The difference between immersive storytelling and traditional media like film, print, and 2D gaming
The power and potential to immerse users in experiences like never before
How to tell the right stories for this medium

How the 'hero's journey' applies to immersive storytelling
And so much more
This class will give you specific examples, case studies, and assignments to guide you on your way and help you become an immersive tech marketing pro!
