Lobby Cam Party in the Wheat Fields with Bryn Oh

Bryn Oh hosted a great party Saturday 9-5 over in Immersiva and Lobby Cam, her most recent build that is a must see immersive artsy, gamey, explorable good time that I've previously blogged here:



Bryn blogged about the party and included her song play list.  Since it's rare to have an event party at Immersiva which is a highly popular immersive art sim that carries a good crowd at openings and a steady stream otherwise already, I made sure I was there for this special treat.  You can see her post with music here: http://brynoh.blogspot.com/2015/09/strange-bedfellows-music-on-immersiva.html

Lobby cam will be open for some time yet but be sure to get on over for your chance before Bryn starts making (or putting in) something new for us to enjoy.  She reset the typically sunny rural wheat field area sim lights to a sort of bluish foggy haze that seemed to represent the coming fall season.  She's a master of setting the ambiance and picking the best windlights, and it looked very cool.  I took a few pictures in daylight lighting for comparison but the sim set windlight seemed to work for me along with the somewhat unique personally selected song play list Bryn picked out and DJ'd by John (Johannes1977).  It became a sort of star studded party with many high profile people such as Ux Hax (MetaLES), Will Burns/Aeonix (Synthetic Environment Specialist, AKA: Techy CB),  (Inara Pey (blogger and much more) Emma Portillo (Events Coordinator, blogger, etc.) Saoirseheart More (blogger, writer, podcaster)  Josie Anderton (SL Live Musician)  Bixyl Shuftan (SL Newser Editor) George Downes, Glitter Princess Destiny, Gem Sunkiller, and many many more to the extent the sim was full shortly after the party started then with some coming and going through the sets as they could.

Lobby Cam, by Bryn Oh, opens today Sunday March 29th, 2015. This build comes with a hud to use and as always Bryn does a great job with set up info. at the landing point explaining in details even I can understand how to best adjust settings for optimal viewing of this build. The magical hud is a diary you leaf through that progresses as you do.  When you click on the art and things it will automatically draw your camera in.




 


I caught up with Bryn chatting with visitors but I didn't hang with the group long as the build just opened today and since it's set to a limited number of avs for ease of use, I moved on pretty quickly. Bryn said, take your time, relax, enjoy and take it all in. So I did. I brought my friend Kathy Nikolaidis who said, "For me, this is like walking into a move." It is! It's a story, an explore, great art, a challenge/hunt, all rolled into one great build that incorporates great use of textures, objects, shadows, light, and an excellent variety of movements within the build. The sim sounds were natural sounds vs music and video is also used so be sure to have that enabled. The sim is loaded with works of art by Bryn who said all the pictures were done on oil. The build is wonderfully made as we've come to expect of Bryn. There is no need for special windlights etc as the shadows, natural colors, movement, etc are all built right into the build. The wonderful wheat field blows in the wind along with dandelion puffs and the occasional note. The rich textures are so amazing. Even entry into the sim is unique. We get a story to go along with the explore and we also get a glimpse of some of Bryn's real/first life oil paintings. Be sure to click everything. You will pick up stamps and gain progress in the diary by clicking things, plus it will help make some things work by clicking. I also found some items from past Bryn builds that when clicked directs a visitor to an associated youtube video links. There are some great special effects. Bryn never ceases to amaze me and I love Lobby Cam!
