I was given a preliminary sketch of the location and a basic timeline. The alley to house the event was between Calii Love and the Fit Factory across from Mountain Equipment Co-op on King Street West. The dimensions I had were 20\u2019 by 100\u2019. The requirements were straight forward; seating for 16 people to use the VR headsets and headphones. They wanted it to feel like Vegas in Toronto on a strict budget. The big stipulation was there could be no line-up on the sidewalk. Everything had to happen within the alley. I took some time in Illustrator and designed this user flow to correct scale.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/hughqelliott.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/VAYR_TO_Layout.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-1876\" src=\"https:\/\/hughqelliott.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/VAYR_TO_Layout.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"500\" height=\"216\" srcset=\"https:\/\/hughqelliott.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/VAYR_TO_Layout.jpg 500w, https:\/\/hughqelliott.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/VAYR_TO_Layout-420x181.jpg 420w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/a>Create a path to the back or waiting area with cocktail tables and brand ambassadors to chat with the public. Have some displays running content at the front and back. Have a PA system running some music. As VR headset positions became available, move people from the waiting area to the VR area. Move people out quickly. An efficient plan, if I do say so myself.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What should it look like?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>First things first. I was given a name for a local production\/event shop called <a href=\"http:\/\/mawg.design\/\">Mawg Design<\/a>. They had done events in that particular venue previously. With that experience and knowledge, setup and tear down might be smoother. I contacted Michael at Mawg to get an idea of what he could supply within the budget I had available with the setup I needed.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Four long\/dining tables<\/li>\n<li>16 chairs<\/li>\n<li>Four cocktail tables (tall, glass top preferable)<\/li>\n<li>Three large displays for video content, synced<\/li>\n<li>One PA system<\/li>\n<li>Tent to cover venue (in case of rain)<\/li>\n<li>Artificial turf. The venue is hard-packed gravel<\/li>\n<li>Cordons plus stanchions (for that exclusive vibe)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The estimate came back high for what we could afford. I offered some creative solutions;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Purchase two TVs and a stand. Run video simultaneously.<\/li>\n<li>Purchase the furniture.<\/li>\n<li>Rent a PA separately.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Mawg would still be in charge of the tent, turf and additionally set up barriers in the form of construction fencing.\u00a0 A security guard would be on-site after hours but the alley is used by locals as a thoroughfare and we needed to discourage people walking through the venue.<\/p>\n<p>With the budget back on track, I set about sourcing furniture. I came up with options for tables in the viewing area, chairs for the same area, and cocktail tables. Once the decision was made, I ordered all of it. In the interim we started to discuss additional elements that we could use to catch people\u2019s eyes. Vinyl stand up banners were planned and designed to be ordered. The banners would represent the five artists who took part in the VR experience, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.visitlasvegas.com\/alteryourreality\/signalnoise\/\">SignalNoise<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.visitlasvegas.com\/alteryourreality\/beeple\/\">Beeple<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.visitlasvegas.com\/alteryourreality\/fafi\/\">Fafi<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.visitlasvegas.com\/alteryourreality\/adhemas-batista\/\">Adhemas Batista<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.visitlasvegas.com\/alteryourreality\/insa\/\">Insa<\/a>. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.signalnoise.com\/\">SignalNoise<\/a> (James White) would be on hand all three days as a meet and greet and sign posters.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The Sign<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Since we removed one display from the back when we went from three displays to two, I needed a solution for a showpiece in the back waiting area. We briefly discussed a ten-foot banner but I immediately felt a large sign would have more impact. I floated the idea of taking their event logo and making a 10\u2019 wide sign.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1877\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1877\" style=\"width: 500px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/hughqelliott.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/VAYR_logo.gif\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1877\" src=\"https:\/\/hughqelliott.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/VAYR_logo.gif\" alt=\"\" width=\"500\" height=\"321\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1877\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">From this.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/hughqelliott.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Sign_ladies_sm.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-1895\" src=\"https:\/\/hughqelliott.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Sign_ladies_sm.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"500\" height=\"333\" srcset=\"https:\/\/hughqelliott.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Sign_ladies_sm.jpg 500w, https:\/\/hughqelliott.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Sign_ladies_sm-420x280.jpg 420w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/hughqelliott.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Sign_sm.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-1896\" src=\"https:\/\/hughqelliott.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Sign_sm.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"500\" height=\"333\" srcset=\"https:\/\/hughqelliott.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Sign_sm.jpg 500w, https:\/\/hughqelliott.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Sign_sm-420x280.jpg 420w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1898\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1898\" style=\"width: 500px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/hughqelliott.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/SignLarge_sm.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1898\" src=\"https:\/\/hughqelliott.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/SignLarge_sm.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"500\" height=\"333\" srcset=\"https:\/\/hughqelliott.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/SignLarge_sm.jpg 500w, https:\/\/hughqelliott.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/SignLarge_sm-420x280.jpg 420w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1898\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">To this.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>They loved the idea and I set about figuring out how to fabricate the sign. I decided on a layered approach. One .5\u201d layer on the bottom for primary stability. A second .5\u201d layer with the Las Vegas logo and tagline \u201cAlter Your Reality\u201d cut out. Finally, a 1.5\u201d logo as a third \u201clayer\u201d. I contacted <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cnccutting.ca\/\">CNC Cutting Inc<\/a>. I sent them over the DXFs and they asked all the right questions. Material, thicknesses, and they mentioned not being able to cut some shapes that were too small for their tooling.<\/p>\n<p>That was no problem. I contacted <a href=\"http:\/\/www.hotpopfactory.com\/\">Hot Pop Factory<\/a>\u00a0and they were able to cut the needed shapes in .25\u201d ply twice. I would then glue the doubles together to get my .5\u201d thickness.<\/p>\n<p>With both CNC and laser cutting underway, I spoke to some family members active in theatre and who know scene building. Specifically I needed a solution for holding the sign which was coming out at 6.25\u2019 high and 10.25\u2019 wide. All plywood and at minimum 1\u201d thick. I estimated the entire sign would weigh approximately 350 lbs. No problem I was told. You use jack posts. A brace set at a 90\u00b0 angle at least 2\/3\u2019s the height and equal that in length. Add an angled brace for stability. Finally use sand bags to counter-weight. Have as much sand in weight. Place the sand bags as far back on the floor timber of the jack post. That plus the distance from the sign will counteract any forward lean the sign might want. \u00a0I needed a location to fabricate the sign but the budget didn\u2019t really allow for a workshop. A neighbour with a covered carport had recently sold her home but the closing date wasn\u2019t until August. With a promise I wouldn\u2019t make a mess, I had a covered space to work. This turned out to be fortuitous due to the fact that it rained two of the days of my build.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/hughqelliott.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Sign_covered.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-1900\" src=\"https:\/\/hughqelliott.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Sign_covered.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"500\" height=\"375\" srcset=\"https:\/\/hughqelliott.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Sign_covered.jpg 500w, https:\/\/hughqelliott.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Sign_covered-420x315.jpg 420w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>The PA<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I put out a call on Facebook for anyone with a PA system. Almost immediately a former coworker popped up saying \u201cI have a PA system. You can borrow it.\u201d John Cassano, thank you so much. John is the leader of a Traveling WIlburys cover band called <a href=\"https:\/\/travelingmilburys.com\/\">The Traveling Milburys<\/a>. I drove out to Waterloo and picked the PA after getting a quick rundown on how to set it up. It worked great and everyone was happy with the sound. At some point of the first day, one speaker was moved to the front of the venue to help catch attention and it seemed to work.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The TVs<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>For the displays, I bought two identical 40\u201d LED TVs. In addition I bought a back-to-back dual TV stand. In order to display the same content simultaneously I ordered a HDMI splitter. The source was a Raspberry PI set up with a <a href=\"https:\/\/learn.adafruit.com\/raspberry-pi-video-looper\/overview\">looping video player<\/a>. The content came off a USB stick and worked flawlessly all three days. Finally I modelled up and 3D printed a pair of remote control holders so we&#8217;d know where the remotes were at all times.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/hughqelliott.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/remoteHolders.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-1899\" src=\"https:\/\/hughqelliott.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/remoteHolders.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"500\" height=\"625\" srcset=\"https:\/\/hughqelliott.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/remoteHolders.jpg 500w, https:\/\/hughqelliott.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/remoteHolders-420x525.jpg 420w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Set up and tear down of the displays took no more than 5 minutes and made for an eye-catching feed.<\/p>\n<p>Alli Saunders of <a href=\"http:\/\/www.sightseven.com\/\">Sight Seven<\/a> provided me with a bunch of timelapse videos of the set up.

We had an outdoor event but the venue was an alley between relatively tall buildings. Thanks to minimal direct sunlight only at noon, the effect of the heat was minimized. In addition, there is a relatively consistent breeze thanks to the direction of the alley, north to south. Although it was certainly hot it was not unbearable. We discussed adding some manner of shade to the tent, which was clear. The morning of the second day, Vaitari from R&amp;R and I took the cladding used for creating a privacy barrier on the fencing and draped on the cross-members of the tent using clamps at the end. This provided additional shade and made the rest of the day even more bearable.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Night Lighting<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Around two weeks before the event launch, I asked if there was any evening aspect to the activation. The answer was yes there was one evening going until 11pm. So I found some <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.ca\/RcStarry-Connectable-Waterproof-Christmas-Function\/dp\/B071GR9F9D\">patio lights<\/a>\u00a0and with a tent approximately 50\u2019 by 20\u2019 order four sets of lights which were 33\u2019 long. The fit was perfect and the subdued light from the patio lights really helped set the tone in the evening. With some up-lights provided by Michael at Mawg (thanks, Michael) we created a great look at night.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/hughqelliott.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/NightSIgn_sm.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-1893\" src=\"https:\/\/hughqelliott.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/NightSIgn_sm.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"500\" height=\"333\" srcset=\"https:\/\/hughqelliott.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/NightSIgn_sm.jpg 500w, https:\/\/hughqelliott.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/NightSIgn_sm-420x280.jpg 420w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/hughqelliott.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/NightVR_sm.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-1894\" src=\"https:\/\/hughqelliott.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/NightVR_sm.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"500\" height=\"333\" srcset=\"https:\/\/hughqelliott.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/NightVR_sm.jpg 500w, https:\/\/hughqelliott.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/NightVR_sm-420x280.jpg 420w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/hughqelliott.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/NightLong_sm.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-1892\" src=\"https:\/\/hughqelliott.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/NightLong_sm.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"500\" height=\"333\" srcset=\"https:\/\/hughqelliott.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/NightLong_sm.jpg 500w, https:\/\/hughqelliott.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/NightLong_sm-420x280.jpg 420w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Hologram<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Last but not least was the stipulation we hang a hologram.

This wood had to mount high on to the tent structure. We picked our spot, added a black background to help make the hologram stand out and set it up. If you\u2019ve never seen one of these in action, they\u2019re mesmerizing.<\/p>\n<p><strong>SignalNoise<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>James White is one of the contributors to the experience.

HE was welcoming of the guests and answered any and all questions. He posed for photos, signed posters and was a delight to have around. I ride a Triumph Thruxton. On the second day, James asked if I\u2019d let him get some pics on the bike. Someone mentioned bringing the bike in front of the sign but, as much as I\u2019d want that, it was a no go. Instead I rode my bike around and up on the sidewalk in front of the venue. The photographer and James got to work taking some pics.<\/p>\n<figure style=\"width: 969px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/pbs.twimg.com\/media\/Dg3s_v4XkAARiJR.jpg\" width=\"969\" height=\"1199\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">My bike, made cooler.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/hughqelliott.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/SignalNoise_Hugh_sm.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-1897\" src=\"https:\/\/hughqelliott.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/SignalNoise_Hugh_sm.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"500\" height=\"333\" srcset=\"https:\/\/hughqelliott.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/SignalNoise_Hugh_sm.jpg 500w, https:\/\/hughqelliott.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/SignalNoise_Hugh_sm-420x280.jpg 420w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>As a surprise at the end, I hopped on and got some pics snuggling James.
