The Gospel According to Richard Pryor

It’s hard to get a sense of this project from these images alone. I’ll try to add some screenshots for context down the road. This was my first stab at VR and though I’m sure I near ruptured Unity in the attempt, it was a blast. Comedy as religion. This is the concept. Within the towering interior of a cathedral (a modified Notre Dame actually, thanks to SketchUp), one can mosey from table to altar to bar, gaze at the venerable comedians of years past in stained glass and experience a world struggling to regain its sense of humour. The minister, unseen and the evening’s MC, sermonizes atop organ music. From here, you’re encouraged to explore and trigger some of the half-dozen stand-up sketches hidden throughout the club.
