The show, written and executive produced by Ayer (Fast and the Furious, Training Day, Fury, The Beekeeper) alongside Chris Long and their Cedar Park Studios, is a bold next-generation storytelling experience that will combine elements of episodic streaming, gaming and professional sports, and will invite audiences to actively participate in virtual racing linked to the plot. Feature, a pioneering entertainment and technology company, is the main studio behind the project, and Lollipop utilizes their Smart Content solution to power the interactive components of the series.
Narwhal Studios是Arctic7于2023年收购的公司,以其在多个Lucasfilm作品(如《曼达洛人》、《阿肯》和《奥比万·肯诺比》)、漫威的《蚁人和黄蜂侠:量子玛尼亚》以及Netflix的《阿凡达:最后的气宗》中的虚拟制作和VFX工作而闻名,在Lollipop的设计早期阶段即已积极参与其中。该节目由Ayer(《速度与激情》、《训练日》、《愤怒》、《养蜂人》)与Chris Long及其Cedar Park Studios共同编写并担任执行制片人,是一个大胆的下一代故事体验,将结合流媒体剧集、游戏和职业体育的元素,并邀请观众积极参与与剧情相关的虚拟赛车。Feature是一家开创性的娱乐和科技公司,是该项目的主要制片厂商,Lollipop利用了他们的智能内容解决方案来支持该系列的交互式组件。
With its deep transmedia and Unreal Engine 5 expertise drawn from the gaming and film/TV background, Narwhal is working on virtual set design, as well as on the gaming and professional sports component of the series which is slated for release late in 2024.
凭借其深厚的跨媒体和虚幻引擎5的专业知识,Narwhal正在负责虚拟场景设计,以及该系列中游戏和专业运动的部分,该部分预计于2024年底发布。
