I had the opportunity to watch some of the live stream of HipHop Theatre hosted by the Digital Worlds Institute a few weeks ago. I wanted to quickly give you impression of the show, since I have never really seen anything similar.
The audio and video effects synchronization behind the whole act simply blew me away, given the fast paced environment with which they had to keep up. The video effects were very well crafted to reflect the proper mood throughout the presentation. The overall theme of the event was quite interesting and I thought that the short skits brought out the multitude of abilities in all the actors, while keeping the crowd entertained. Since I was viewing the event live on ustream, camera control was really important, so that the viewer would see and possibly feel like he was part of the audience. This part of the presentation was also very well executed but sometimes the audio volume created distortions when the actors spoke, hindering some of the experience.
Overall I enjoyed the HipHop Theatre and hope that the Digital Worlds Institute continues to fuse the latest technologies in order to tell compelling stories.
