The Prefecture of Ionian Islands’ Film Office, in collaboration with HAL’s Gamification Hub, has created a virtual extension of the office in the metaverse using the Spatial platform. This initiative aims to promote sustainability, attract filmmakers and tourists, and support the local economy. The virtual Film Office is designed similarly to a physical space and offers private meetings for film and TV industry professionals, information about prospective locations, and details about past productions in the Ionian Islands. In addition, the platform caters to thematic visitors, tourists, and tourism professionals, providing location-based content for trip planning, booking sites, and connecting with local businesses.
