Comment on Kiss say farewell to live touring, become first US band to go virtual and become digital avatars
elbarto777@lemmy.world 9 months agoOh, so it would be just a 3D animated movie?
The only way I maaaay consider watching such concert is if I knew that the actual band is still playing and interacting with the audience behind the avatars. They could be playing sitting down, in their pajamas if they want. But the sound must be live to be okay in my book.
Otherwise, no thanks.

No. I think they created the avatars from them wearing motion capture suits. I don’t believe they will be using them any longer.
It specifies this in a roundabout way in the article by mentioning how kiss did not show back up on stage when the avatars were sent out because “that’s the point”.
They didn’t go ran into the backstage area and put on motion capture to send out their fake avatars. Plus, why would they?
