Fable’s virtual being Lucy takes a tour at virtual Sundance Film Festival

Lucy, the virtual being from Fable Studio‘s Wolves in the Walls virtual reality experience, is getting around. Now she has busted the fourth wall and moved into the real, or virtual world, of the virtual Sundance Film Festival.

This week, Lucy appeared as a guest at Sundance. She appeared in Zoom sessions with other attendees, and they were able to quiz her. As an artificial intelligence character, she responded with her own comments and views on watching expressionist movies at Sundance. She also showed off her own film, dubbed Dracula, at the event, which usually takes place in Park City, Utah. This year, the event was virtual, with sessions on Zoom.
