Let's Dive into the World of Immersive Storytelling with Rosemary
Exploring Engrossing Tales: An Insight Into the AR/VR Realm Guided by Rosemary, a Co-founder of Badass Studios
We had a riveting chat with Rosemary, who's not just an investor but a badass storyteller in AR/VR, recently at our offices. The woman's portfolio includes working alongside the brilliant minds at Badass Studios, a pioneering company concentrating on immersive storytelling for live eSports events, with an ardent belief that technology should stimulate our emotions.
So, what drew Rosemary to Badass Studios? Innovation, an exceptional team, and the remarkable potential for immersive storytelling, she explains.
Crafting Emotional Joy Rides
"Immersive without a purpose, without a story to connect emotionally, is merely a gimmick," Rosemary states emphatically, discussing how storytelling forms the backbone of Badass Studios' work. "We believe that immersive technology should evoke feelings, and that philosophy permeates our work."
Genre Agnostic Narrative Mastery
Rosemary's talent knows no bounds, having written for and produced various mediums - VR, Mixed Reality, games, screenplays, podcasts, and more. Does she approach storytelling differently when working on a screenplay versus a podcast or immersive technology? You bet!
Each medium has its quirks. In screenplays, the focus is on concise visual storytelling, while VR projects prioritize the world and space, she explains. The most exciting aspect, in her view, is when a story thrives in multiple media types - or even better, needs more than one medium to come to life.
Real-World Inspiration
Rosemary attributes her writing prowess to her diverse life experiences, be it as a tech entrepreneur, digital nomad, or simply as a woman. Her characters often draw inspiration from the world vividly depicted in her stories, merging technological landscapes with the rich human tapestry.
The Journey to the Dark Side of the Keyboard
Having dabbled in tech writing, Rosemary discovered her passion for screenwriting when working as an assistant producer on a children's movie. After recognizing her thirst for storytelling, she began her pursuit, dedicating hours to learning the craft from classes, industry coaches, and extensive writing.
The challenges are real. Crippling self-doubt plagued her as she ventured into screenplay writing later in life, but each hurdle proved to be a valuable lesson along the way.
Strategically Savvy Scripting
Her background in business development and production offers Rosemary a strategic lens to her creative process. This strategic advantage contributes to the creation of captivating narratives for pitches.
The Future of AR/VR and AI
With technology rapidly evolving, Rosemary anticipates AR/VR and AI integrating more seamlessly into everyday life. Badass Studios is part of the vanguard, continuously pushing the boundaries of creativity to supply exceptional, immersive experiences.
