DOMES
National Distribution

A distribution network already built. Underutilized for live music.

The United States is home to an estimated 120+ large-format dome and OmniMAX-style theaters. Most screen science and nature films originally formatted for flat IMAX, leaving the wraparound geometry of the dome unused. Concert content formatted for the actual dome specification is effectively absent from the market.

The Raymond & Brown Tour OmniMAX film steps directly into that gap. Birmingham serves as the live capture test, with the tour's Tampa final show as the second demo production — Tampa is home to a newly built eight-story dome, one of the largest immersive domes in the southeast. The same workflow can be duplicated at any venue with an immersive dome, paired with local live events, or distributed as a single live capture screened across multiple domes nationwide.

Precedent is already proven at scale. Immersive concert and narrative films such as The Wizard of Oz at Sphere in Las Vegas have shown that audiences will pay premium prices for content formatted natively for spherical, wraparound venues. The dome format is the same idea at a distributed national footprint instead of one Las Vegas venue.
