Your questions will become the next article. I have opened a Reiji Kuga question box.

Hello, this is Reiji Kuga.

When I am making metaverse dramas, I sometimes feel that what has become second nature to me is not at all obvious from the outside.

Creating dramas in cluster, acting with avatars, and having people gather in a virtual space to build a story.

And, changing the form of creation little by little while using AI has become a part of my daily production.

However, for those who have never experienced it, I am sure it must seem full of mysteries.

That is exactly why I have opened a question box on note.

Instead of just writing about what I want to talk about unilaterally, I want to know what the people reading want to know, where they are getting stuck, and what they are interested in.

Articles born from that should surely be interesting as well.

Your question might become the next article.

I am waiting for questions like these

You do not need to overthink it.

Whether it is about metaverse dramas, AI creation, posting on note or X, or my activities in cluster, it is all fine.

For example, you can ask about how metaverse dramas differ from regular dramas, what it specifically means to make a drama in cluster, or what kind of possibilities there are in acting with avatars.

It is perfectly fine to start by asking about things like these.

Regarding "Crossroad," you can ask about the thoughts behind making it, what the most important theme is, or what I think about first when writing a script.

You can also ask about my interactions with the cast, what I find difficult while moving forward with production, or about expressions that are only possible because it is a virtual space.

Regarding AI creation, you can ask how I incorporate image generation or video AI into my work, whether my authorial voice fades if I rely too much on AI, or if using AI really makes creation easier.

These are themes that I am currently thinking about while practicing them myself.

Regarding posting on note or X, you can ask what I am conscious of to keep posting, or how I think when I make a work but it does not get seen.

Questions about what I value to avoid being too promotional are also welcome.

Simple questions like this are perfectly fine.

In fact, the questions that come to mind first often make for the most interesting articles.

Basic questions are the most welcome.

When people hear 'Q&A box,' some might feel a bit hesitant, wondering, 'Is it okay to ask this?' 'Is this too basic?' or 'Is it okay for me to ask?'

But it is absolutely fine.

In fact, the more basic the question, the more welcome it is.

This is because if one person is wondering about something, there is a possibility that someone else is curious about the same thing.

What is a metaverse drama?

How should I actually use AI for creative work?

What does it feel like to create a work with others in a virtual space?

Isn't it exhausting to do both creative work and promotion?

Questions like these are very important.

Even things I talk about as if they are common knowledge are likely full of unknowns to someone seeing them for the first time.

I want to properly turn that gap into an article.

What I can answer is the story from the front lines.

I am not a critic.

I actually make metaverse dramas, write scripts, interact with cast members, hold events on cluster, and use AI while thinking every day about how to get my work to reach people.

Therefore, I cannot just give you a clean, perfect answer.

There are things that went well and things that failed, things I am unsure about, and things I am currently in the middle of testing.

But that is exactly why there are things I can talk about.

How do we create works, deliver them, and involve people in a place where no one has the right answer yet?

Because I am also feeling my way through this, I want to share stories from the field by someone who is actually working on it, rather than offering a polished theory of success.

Your questions will become the next article.

I intend to answer the questions I receive in the form of note articles as much as possible.

While I may answer questions that can be addressed in a single word briefly, I will write full-length articles for topics that can be explored in depth, such as metaverse drama production, AI creation, dissemination activities, and activities in virtual spaces.

Your question might be the spark for the next article.

And that article might reach someone else who had the same question.

I would be happy if you could use your questions to uncover things that I might have overlooked on my own.

I think it would be interesting to create a space where articles are born from readers' questions, and those articles in turn lead to someone else's questions or actions.

Feel free to send them in.

If you have anything you would like to ask me, such as about the metaverse drama "Crossroad" or Project Alive, my activities in cluster, AI creation, my posts on note or X, or what I think about when trying to deliver my work, please feel free to send it over.

It doesn't have to be a technical question.

In fact, I would be even happier if you sent questions that make you wonder, "Is it okay to ask this?"

I cannot guarantee that I will be able to answer everything, but I will respond to those I can as carefully as possible in the form of note articles.

Your questions will become the next article.
