MIAT presented the first International Immersive Storytelling Masterclass Bootcamp: Training the talents of the future

Award-winning creators and artists, immersive directors, XR creatives and science-techs have transformed Milan into a pool of knowledge for those who will be the talents of the immersive world of the future. 

In July 2021, MIAT (https://www.miat.tech/), the Multiverse Institute Of Art and Technologies, launched the first SOLD-OUT international Immersive Storytelling Masterclass in Milan. 

The Bootcamp, led by international industry professionals, award-winning creators and artists, immersive directors, XR creatives, sound designers and science-techs was structured over eight days, and designed to touch, understand and experience all the facets of the immersive world and the entire immersive production process. 

“During the full immersion week, the participants have ranged from topics such as stereos & cameras, 360 producing and filming, immersive audio, virtual, augmented, and mixed reality, game-engines, and volumetric capture, to learn how to create immersive experiences using new worlds and languages. Furthermore, they went deeper, learning from a scientifical perspective what is behind these immersive technologies. 

Finally, through lectures and sensory and innovative workshops were addressed key topics concerning narrative, interactivity, and immersion, in order to understand how to build the perfect and engaging immersive storytelling capable of transmitting emotions, increasing empathy and connecting with the audience.” Said Elisabetta Rotolo, CEO - Founder of MIAT and tutor for the masterclass. 

At the end of the course, tutors and international experts guided the participant with creative and design thinking techniques through the conceptualisation of their immersive project presented afterwards to a jury of international commissioners including international executive producers, curators, interactive and immersive media experts as Liz Rosenthal, Myriam Achard, Dan Tucker, and Carlo Rodomonti. 

The masterclass, designed to meet the needs of the international XR market, providing the future generation of art-tech with artistic, creative and critical thinking, was the first masterclass launched by MIAT, which will be followed by new courses and opportunities for professionals, students, artists, creatives and corporations.
