Continuing our immersive coverage from the Overlook Film Festival 2019, we sat down with a group of creators quite familiar to the Los Angeles Immersive community, JFI Productions.
The team, best known for their productions of “The Willows,” an experience that is now accessible in VR via the Amaze VR app, as well as their annual productions of the immersive Halloween haunt, “Creep LA,” developed a traveling version of an excerpt from their most recent “Creep” show, “Awake,” this time with the addition of some charming and terribly unsettling additions…
Check out our video with the JFI team below to hear all about the conception of the characters of “Mr. Black,” horrifyingly embodied by writer/performer, Daniel Montgomery, the disturbing “Maid,” portrayed by the talented (and anxiety-inducing) Kylee Thurman, and the skillful work that went into creating this and many other beloved (and terrifying) immersive productions.
