Landmark Entertainment Group is a global entertainment design firm based in Los Angeles, California, United States, that creates theme parks, theme park attractions, live entertainment productions,[2] and virtual reality attractions.[3] Co-founded by Gary Goddard and Tony Christopher in 1980, it became known for producing attractions at the Universal Studios theme parks, including The Amazing Adventures of Spider-Man,[4],[5] and Terminator 2: 3D.
It has created themed attractions in over 35 countries on five continents, as well as concept and master plans for complete destination resorts, redevelopment areas, and mixed-use retail and entertainment facilities. Its previous projects include TV productions and movies, and original properties for animation.
Announced in June 2015[6], The Landmark Interactive Virtual Experience (L.I.V.E. Centre) is a virtual reality and augmented reality concept that will be created in a Chinese city in the summer of 2017.[7] This first 200,000 square foot installation will feature traditional theme park attractions, such as an interactive museum, virtual zoo, aquarium, live theatre, 4D theatre, and art gallery, with 30% of its experiences expected to contain virtual reality content.[8]
In October 2015, Landmark announced the company's concept of the Pavilion Of Me™(P.O.M), a daily-use in-home entertainment portal that reimagines everyday activities such as checking social media, online shopping, watching film and TV content, video chat, and playing video games into virtual reality experiences.[9]
In conjunction with the Pavilion of Me™, the concept for the Virtual World's Fair™ was also announced—a virtual reality experience including real-time social interaction, entertainment, education and shopping, like a traditional world's fair, but designed for in-home use rather than as a real-world destination.[10]
