VIDEO Microsoft Ava Lee Scott: Is there a role for tech in building communities? TV commercial 2018 • As an actor, creator, and artist, Ava Lee Scott has always seen worlds in her head. With technologies such as virtual reality and augmented reality, she’s been able to depart the old space of storytelling and bring her worlds to life in a new way—and bring people together, too. Her storytelling platform, AltspaceVR, is a safe space for people from all over the world to come together. Here, cultural barriers are broken down and people are free to be who they are and live the life they want to live. Social video games can do good—and she’s excited and honored to create and be with people who see outside the box. 00:00 My name is Ava Lee Scott 00:02 and I am an actor, a creator, 00:05 What exists in me is pure story. 00:07 What our technology does for someone like me 00:09 is it allows me to create 00:12 the worlds that I have always seen, but I had limitations. 00:17 AltspaceVR is a virtual reality social platform 00:20 I'm excited about AltspaceVR because of the simplicity 00:24 of bringing people together. 00:26 Giving people the power in their own hands. 00:28 Having people from all over the world come together for free, 00:32 speak of things that they can't speak in their country. 00:34 Have the freedom to talk about their preferences of 00:36 the way they want to live their life 00:38 And that AltspaceVR actually provided a sacred platform 00:42 where people can come together 00:44 And have these beautiful experiences 00:46 So I think it's a very safe space for 00:50 people who are vulnerable and are trying to find a voice. 00:53 This is an exciting time for creators in technology 00:57 And I feel so honored to be 00:58 amongst the group of people that see outside the box. 01:01 With AltspaceVR I felt that I can open their hearts.- advertisement spot 2018
