O-Dogg

Production Manager/Sound Designer/Composer

O-Dogg: An Angeleno Take on Othello is a prototype that uses the 1992 Los Angeles Uprising as the backdrop to adapt Shakespeare's Othello. This tragic love story centers O-Dogg, the Afro-Latino leader of the L.O.K. Crew, and Dez, Korean American daughter of Jay Park, owner of Jay's Liquor store. This scene erupts on Day One of the Uprising, outside of Jay's store.

In this immersive experience, users are launched into a cacophony of chaos during the 1st night of the 1992 Los Angeles Uprising. Unable to look away, the participant is forced to contend with a city divided along race, class, and immigration lines as revolt fills the city, provoked by the acquittals of four white LAPD police officers who beat and nearly killed Rodney King.
