TweeVee was created for a LIKELIKE livestream<\/a> showcasing four interactive movies, from the pioneering Kinoautomat<\/em> to the wild YouTube game The Immoral Ms. Conduct<\/span><\/em>.
\nIt was a good excuse to restore the first (American) interactive movie I’m Your Man in all of its branching splendor, and make a new piece remixing very pixelated footage from an old CD-ROM.<\/p>\n

I’m Your Man<\/h3>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

I’m Your Man<\/a> is a 1992 short film created to showcase Loews Theatres’ interactive cinema technology. Audiences used seat-mounted joysticks to vote between three options at various point of the movie.<\/p>\n

Although the format ultimately failed due to lack of marketing and poor audience reception, I’m Your Man was released on DVD in 1998 as part of a second attempt at interactive video.<\/p>\n

The use of unconventional menus makes the DVD almost impossible to experience on modern computers.<\/p>\n

In 1996, Knowledge Adventure and Dreamworks published\u00a0Steven Spielberg’s Director’s Chair<\/em>, an ambitious game simulating the process of moviemaking. The centerpiece of the title was a short film with an all star cast directed by Steven Spielberg himself.
\nSince the player could take some crucial decisions in the pre-production phase, the film was shot with different plot points and tonal variants.<\/p>\n

We salvaged the game’s raw footage and reorganized it as a real time interactive movie experience. Be prepared to choose your own path through this obscure bit of film and video game history…<\/p>\n
