New York, NY (Top40 Charts / JMS Music Studio) Composer Zong Chiang, represented by JMS
Music Studio, joins hands with AmaVR to compose new meaning to the concept of togetherness this Mother's Day. Following their 2019 IndieCadie-winning collaboration, they leverage technology to erase gaps that prevent people from connecting. Their new-age VR film Dear Mom is about an aspiring artist who leaves her family to pursue dreams. Tackling the complexity of mother-daughter relationships in a 360-degree experience, this cinematic collaboration explores the meaning of interconnection. At the end of this avant-garde experience, viewers can create a personalized gift to share.
As the world copes with COVID-19, the strain caused by separation and differences grows increasingly stark. Dear Mom aims to bridge these gaps with a story that showcases moments that keep people together. Dear Mom is AmaVR's first public debut, incorporating storytelling, soundtrack, and interactive components to narrate the Asian American immigrant experience. This story resonated with Facebook/Oculus who decided to bring it to a larger audience.
To bring the story to life aurally, Chiang remotely collaborated with cellist Dr. Alex
Kelly and sound engineer Justin Lieberman. Focusing on nuanced interactions, Chiang takes the audience on an aural extravaganza of the ups and downs of relationships. Weaving electronic music with cello performances, his hybrid score paints with musical strokes the relationship between humans and technology.
Through mesmeric music woven into a captivating narrative, Chiang and AmaVR hope to imprint in hearts the experience of connecting. Dear Mom is dedicated to mothers and mother figures worldwide. New age storytelling enhanced by stirring compositions affirm that unity in a time of difficulty knows no boundaries.
