If there’s one major takeaway from this year’s San Diego Comic-Con, it’s that virtual reality is poised to take over just about every type of media as the next big thing… video games are a given, but today we have word about a new big-budget series, “Remember: Remember” from VR tech company AMD and writer/director/producer Kevin Cornish.
Per Deadline, Cornish’s latest VR project was the “Teen Wolf” Ultimate Fan Experience at this year’s San Diego Comic-Con (read our report on it here), which was financed by MTV and AT&T. What makes it unique is its interactivity: Depending on which character(s) the viewer engages with, the ending changes. The outcome is that viewers either live or die depending on whom they listen to.
As for “Remember: Remember,” it “starts in the wake of an alien invasion and takes the audience back to their destroyed apartment for the first time, where each item in the rubble triggers a different memory. The series explores the themes of memory through virtual reality via a series of flashbacks that centers around a love story.”
Exactly where the series might air is undetermined; Cornish and AMD plan to announce a distribution partner at a later date so stay tuned.
