WANDA IN FOR SOME WANDA-FUL ENTERTAINMENT

Fulldome.pro was at the China National Convention Center in Beijing for the 10th Wanda Group Annual Commercial Convention in August 2016. We were at the expo with our 5 meter closed dome and motion seating, demonstrating the immersive Dark Ride Dome solution which brings amusement park style entertainment to shopping centers and arcades.

The Wanda Group is the world’s largest private property developer and owner and has recently diversified into entertainment, through overseas acquisitions to become the world’s largest cinema chain operator. It has also developed several theme parks throughout China and has interests in sporting operations such as Spanish football team Atlético Madrid and the World Triathlon Corporation.

A HEMISPHERE HIGH IN THE HOLLYWOOD HILLS

As the August sun set over the Hollywood Hills, trapeze artists swung above the guests at a private mansion perched at the top of a canyon, the 7 meter (23 foot) dome on the lawn came to life with lasers playing on its outer shell. High above the skyline of Los Angeles the 600 lucky party goers enjoyed a variety of food and treats in the mansion and stunning immersive visuals in the dome. A four projector system showed content at 3K resolution, opening eyes to the potential of 360 immersive environments, entertaining audiences and blowing minds.
Portable domes and projection systems from Fulldome.pro make dome cinema practical for short term events like parties. Our small team was able to quickly set up the dome on the afternoon before the party and pack up again the morning after.

THE DOME SCENE IS BOOMING!

In August 2016 we were fortunate to be at the biennial Boom Festival, in a beautiful valley three hours from the Portuguese capital, Lisbon. The Boom festival began in 1997 as psychedelic and trance music festival and has grown to be one of the most amazing art and music festivals in Europe. The stunning venue, on the shores of Idanha-a-Nova Lake, attracts an audience from around the world to share the music, art, street theater, and sustainable community ethos. This year Fulldome.pro presented the Samskara project with Android Jones, the revered digital artist, and driving force behind the Museum of Visionary Art (MOVA) which presents the work of more than 20 artists from around world. The crown jewel of the MOVA Gallery at Boom was the 10 meter digital dome provided by Fulldome.pro. During the eight days of the festival more than 20,000 visitors had their minds blown by the second iteration of Samskara and a new show by Luminokaya “The Mystery of Angkor Wat”. Thank you friends for supporting us with your pure emotions and happy smiles -we can’t think of a better way to enjoy a European summer.
