Background of the study:
Immersive digital storytelling employs interactive multimedia techniques to create engaging narratives that resonate deeply with audiences. A heritage tourism project in Abuja has adopted immersive storytelling methods—such as 360-degree videos, virtual tours, and interactive timelines—to vividly showcase cultural landmarks and historical narratives. This approach not only captivates audiences but also shapes brand perception by establishing an emotional connection with the heritage being promoted. The study explores how immersive storytelling influences brand perception, examining viewer engagement, emotional impact, and overall changes in brand image. By integrating advanced digital technologies with rich cultural narratives, the project aims to differentiate itself from traditional tourism marketing and build a strong, authentic brand identity. Challenges such as high production costs, technical complexities, and maintaining narrative authenticity are also addressed. The research combines qualitative insights from audience feedback and quantitative engagement metrics to provide a comprehensive evaluation of immersive digital storytelling’s effectiveness in enhancing brand perception.
Statement of the problem:
The heritage tourism project in Abuja faces obstacles in achieving consistent brand perception through immersive digital storytelling. Technical challenges, narrative inconsistencies, and high production costs have hindered the ability to create a cohesive and engaging brand image. These issues reduce the overall impact of storytelling efforts and limit the project’s capacity to attract and retain a loyal audience.
