Today we're joined by the co-chair of the open metaverse interoperability group (https://omigroup.org/) to talk about what sort of jobs will exist in the metaverse. What will work look like? How can we prepare for that future? 

Before I jump in I'd like to do a quick synopsis of the situation at hand. 

As we speak, crypto and the concept of the metaverse have merged to create an enormous hype cycle beyond anyone's expectations. Everyone's excited about a new creative economy in which people will be rewarded for their work. Part of what people are excited about is the idea of breaking free from today's gatekeepers. 

With the stage set let's jump right into this episode. 

1. Virtual clothing designer

Set up a store in the metaverse and design clothing to help people customize their avatar.

Start today by learning modeling in Blender.

2. Virtual experience designer

Design interesting interactive experiences which people can engage in together for a small fee.

Start today by building games in a platform like Core Games.

3. Metaverse influencer

Are you well known on metaverse radio 1 or do your virtual memories attract thousands of viewers? Work with brands to engage potential customers through product placement.

What do I mean by virtual memories? In the future I believe that you will be able to record the movements within a digital space for later viewing. Just imagine popping down a 3D camera near a digital shopping mall in a virtual space and then doing a Christmas flash mob. People could then play back this memory and walk through it as if they were there in real time.

Team up with people to start a YouTube channel on a roleplay game.

4. Virtual tourism service

All the new technology is overwhelming for some people and there's lots of room for people to be the ambassadors of the new digital reality.

You will charge a small fee to introduce people to a whole new world.

You could probably start this right away! Make a post on this subreddit.

5. Virtual architect

Help construct the digital living spaces of the future.

Get an architecture degree or start building homes in games like Ylands.

Game development is the language of the Metaverse. Those who understand game dev principles will lead the way in creating its future. If you’d like to get involved in building the Metaverse check out the Discord here: https://ocem.cc/socials
