Performance Audiobook Production
Online Content Transformation of Performances! You must have had a lot of concerns, right?
As people who have been involved in the performing arts industry,
we too were contemplating the online transformation of performances.
During that time, we thought that the common video being widely tried now
diminished the unique charm of the performance.
Raising the problem
Decrease in imagination
Performances have the charm of engaging the audience, allowing them to actively use their imagination.
In contrast, general videos limit the opportunity to expand their imagination.
Incurrence of opportunity cost
High production costs, along with numerous opportunity costs arising from the need to modify lighting, make-up, acting, style, blocking, and other related aspects for filming
Diminished charm of the performance
The completed performance video becomes difficult to distinguish from a movie or drama, leading to a reduction in the unique charm of the live performance.
Proposal of alternatives and solutions
The content format we’re proposing as a solution to these problems is
the ‘performance audiobook’, which allows audiences to actively engage their imagination and enjoy the performance using only auditory information.
Through the performance audiobook, we aim to convey the new appeal of live performances,
enhancing accessibility to performing arts for both audiences and culturally marginalized groups,
developing potential audiences, and creating a virtuous cycle.
Attracting interest
By releasing the performance audiobook first, we introduce the key content and generate interest, creating a pre-promotion effect for the main performance!
Time and Cost reduction
The performance audiobook, produced with a small budget, allows for various tests and improvements, which can increase the chances of success for the main performance.
Other
advantages
Create additional revenue opportunities!
Secure necessary elements and resources for the performance in advance!
Observe listener feedback and apply it to the main performance!
