MGM Theater at MGM COTAI presented the global premiere of the world’s first Digital Collective MOVIE “SHIP” by Art Tokyo Global Japan, earlier on June 2. The film “SHIP” is a revolutionized presentation of art – primarily set in a meta-universe space where music, theatrical performance and art integrate with technology, sailing through the history of human civilization to celebrate the precious solidarity in mankind. With the state-of-the-art technologies and the world’s largest permanent indoor LED screen inside of Asia’s first dynamic theater – MGM Theater, local and overseas audience in the premiere event marveled at the enthralling visual effects of such innovative creation.
