n the wake of the 2020 cancellation of Lightning in a Bottle due to the effects of COVID-19, Do LaB, one of North America's premier independent music and arts festival promoters, today revealed the lineup and more for the first-ever DGTL LIB livestream music festival, taking place Memorial Day Weekend, May 22-24. By combining all of the musical curation, whimsy and wackiness, cause-driven educational programming and centering wellness offerings that create the lasting memories Lightning in a Bottle attendees are so fond of, the DoLaB will once again bring their community together, despite the distance.
As we continue to adjust to new forms of entertainment during covid-19, DGTL LIB sets itself apart as a digital festival as it welcomes performances from class industry selectors and LIB veterans alike, from Glitch Mob to the first-ever live streamed performance from urban beatsmith Kaytranada, to TOKiMONSTA, Shiba San, CloZee, Beats Antique, Mr. Carmack, Opiuo, Justin Jay, Funk Hunters, Monolink, Rinzen, Elephant Heart, Dirtwire, Patricio, Jeremy Sole, Antennae, and many more.
Not only will performers curate one-of-a-kind sets for guests to enjoy, but select artists will perform in favorite LIB stages, redesigned as digital environments by Vita Motus Design Studio to create a full immersive experience. From the colourful tendrils of the Woogie to the striking bass-heavy temple of Thunder Stage, there'll be a musical home for everyone. By utilizing Unreal Engine technology and leveraging live production expertise, all elements of a real production are able to seamlessly integrate and bring an engaging broadcast to life from various remote locations, including set design, lighting design, video mapped content, embedded performances, camera capture, and more.
"For the first time ever, a branded festival environment has been recreated in a gaming engine to be used for live broadcast," said Heather Shaw, CEO of Vita Motus Design Studio. "We at Vita Motus think that Lightning in a Bottle is an ideal environment to showcase our realtime rendering capabilities because of its completely unique architecture, iconic design, and immersive content."
"Here at Do LaB, we've always been forward thinking and our longtime partnership with Vita Motus has helped us bring our insane visions to life," said Jesse Flemming, President of Do LaB, Inc. "We are excited to be pushing the envelope with them again, but this time in the digital world."
