#037 Intera: Using VR in Social Media Branding - Eugene Capon (CEO Studio Capon)

In this episode, I have Eugene Capon, CEO of Studio Capon. They are known for creating the first TV-style VR talk show called “Glitched”, you can find it on YouTube here.

AR/VR is known for its application in gaming, but it’s not just about that. Immersive experiences can be created in social media, a leap from the existing relationships we have online.

Here’s what to expect from the episode;

- How did Eugene construct his career from an intern at a digital signage company to running a VR content creation company?
- How do you create your brand image and continue recreating your image even when that previous image no longer suits you anymore?
- How do you differentiate yourself from the pack when everyone is using social media for self-branding?
- What VR offers that the current social media experience can’t offer
- Why VR can increase empathy towards others
- The technologies that can take VR to another level
