“We’re so excited to exclusively premiere a glimpse of our first VR concert at Kwangya at South by Southwest in Austin, Texas. We prepared a special VR concert that can’t be found anywhere else in the world and it is a unique way to meet face to-face with our MYs,” the group says. “We can’t wait to share the full release with everyone soon. See you soon at Kwangya!”
Produced by AmazeVR and SM Entertainment, the VR Concert uses AmazeVR’s proprietary technology, to capture high-definition stereoscopic live-action footage of artists.
“With 9K+ resolution, Aespa shares an up-close performance in which it feels like the members are right in front of your eyes,” shares AmazonVR CEO Steve Lee. “Just as Spotify changed the way that we listen to music, AmazeVR will change the way that we experience music. AmazeVR Concerts are made with the most cutting edge production technology, Unreal Engine-based VFX Tools, and AI modules. Experience the next stage of music.”
