VR Playhouse and Jaunt Immerse Viewers in Traditional Mexican Music and Dance
Jaunt Studios and VR Playhouse team up to celebrate Mexican heritage in a dazzling visual display of music and dance in the new virtual reality experience 'La Fuerza Imprevista.' Released in celebration of Cinco de Mayo, the vibrant cultural experience is available for viewing exclusively on the Jaunt VR app.
The
experience features Latin Grammy-nominated all-female mariachi band Flor de
Toloache, elegant ballet folklorico dancers from Leyenda Dance Company and
beatboxer, Musical Mammal. The result is a modern interpretation of traditional
Mexican art that provides viewers with an immersive viewing experience of a
lively cultural performance.
To
produce this immersive VR experience, Jaunt Studios and VR Playhouse filmed in
former cathedral-turned-event space Vibiana for its powerful acoustics and
expansive, ornate setting that lends itself to a memorable visual experience.
As the mariachi band and dancers swirl in from all directions, beatboxer
Musical Mammal creates an interlude between the songs, effectively merging
tradition with modernity.
The VR piece allows the viewers to explore the
performances surrounding the space at their leisure, allowing for the creation
of a more personalized and immersive experience. Click here to download the Jaunt VR
app to view the VR experience on the Jaunt app, available on all available
platforms, including iOS, Android, GearVR, Oculus Rift and the Vive.
