Scott explains that the team created a database of micro-expression reference materials, analyzed "pore level resolution imagery," and tracked the elasticity of sub-skin layers to understand how Smalls's facial skin moved. The minute changes in facial expression were crucial to creating a realavatar
It all paid off. It looks very real to me, and I have seen it throughout the process. Voletta Wallace said that she sees her son's characteristics in the detailing. Theavatar turned out to be all that I was hoping for. She said, "That's my Christopher" when the team showed Smalls'savatar to Wallace.
Scott says there wasn't a dry eye in the room. We were in the realm of emotionally real simulations at that time.
Smalls was a star with no live recorded performances, which was one of the reasons he was a contender for a virtual reality concert. The founder of Willingie, a digital media company that collaborated on the event, says that Biggie never toured. The virtual performance gave fans a chance to see their hero live and introduce a new generation to a legend.
Wallace is the inheritor of the estate which is estimated to be worth around $170 million. Scott says that Wallace and her son's estate had been looking for opportunities to bring him back to re engage with his fans and build a new fan base. Gen Xers are the ones who are getting older. He could expand his audience by putting Smalls in the metaverse. More concerts, videos of his music, commercials, animation, films, and more opportunities in the metaverse are what Wallace envisions.
