Through work with United Business Media and other clients, we've developed and tested a technology and process harness enabling:
- Production of 'mixed reality' events, accessible within Second Life and also, via video and interactive chat, on the web.
- Production of 'extended global venue' virtual events, where live event content is brought into Second Life (and onto the web) via IP video and other media.
- Production of virtual events at any scale: from small groups to intermediate-scale and academic conferences to large commercial productions, hosting dozens of presenters and thousands of attendees over several days of real time.
Technology and practice at our disposal lets us:
- Smooth the entry and orientation of presenters and attendees to the Second Life platform via branded registration gateways.
