Orpheus VR | re:Naissance Opera brings live virtual performance with iClone and motion capture

Orpheus VR is an indie VR game prototype that I have been working on in conjunction with Debi Wong of re:Naissance Opera, Brian Lee Topp, and Youhan Guan. The project was conceived as a way to engage new virtual reality platforms with the ancient art form of opera. Live From The Underworld is a series of interactive live-stream performances featuring mythological avatars brought to life by real-time motion capture technology and live opera singers. After completing the prototype in 2021, the OrpheusVR team started working in the digital live stream space, using iClone real-time animation software, Character Creator, iClone’s LIVE FACE mocap with Xsens body motion capture technology and computer avatars from the OrpheusVR world to create live, interactive operatic performances that can be streamed from any device.
