A video-game music biopic: We are OFK follows a virtual band trying to make it in LA

This interactive series follows four friends as they navigate LA's cut-throat music scene via heartfelt writing, playable music videos and lots of texting

Gorillaz may be the most famous example of a virtual band, at least in the west. Elsewhere, virtual idol Hatsune Miku is omnipresent, her personality projected on to her by fans. Four-piece outfit OFK are different: before you've heard a note of their music, you're going to find out exactly who they are. The band itself is not real - it is an invention of the songwriters, composers and game designers working together at LA developer Team OFK - but the music is, and this is a novel and intriguing way to experience it.

We Are OFK is a band biopic delivered over five animated episodes. Four friends come together through happenstance, sowing seeds of creativity and opportunity that blossom despite LA's cut-throat music scene. As catchy as the band's electro-pop earworms are, the real hook comes from spending time with them: manager/keyboardist Itsumi, vocalist Luca, producer Jey, and VFX artist Carter.
