We are thrilled to be heading to Orlando, Florida for this year’s Tessitura Learning & Community Conference! From August 6-9th you will find members of the performing arts community and supporting vendors at the Gaylord Palms Resort & Convention Center. This highly anticipated annual conference is a great opportunity to learn about the new features coming to the Tessitura platform, networking with likeminded attendees from all across the country, and hearing from subject matter experts on interesting and creative ways they use the platform to achieve success.
iMedia’s Brian McGovern will be speaking with David Frederick on Monday afternoon during the TLCC sponsor sessions. Their presentation “Reimagining the ticket buying experience with 3D venue seat maps & SeatMe” will cover following:
By providing a realistic, interactive view of your facilities in the ticket buying process, patrons will be able to “look around” the whole theater from each seat in the house. This provides a virtual reality experience that can lead to higher conversion, better selling of obstructed view seats, easier experience for newcomers, and will overall provide a luxury buying experience.
Typically presented in a 2D fashion, the seat picking experience for patrons usually relied on a single image that represented a view from your chosen seat. Segerstrom’s new website offers patrons the ability to select seats as if they were in the theater, complete with realistic 3D renderings of the facilities, interactive view from seat where the mouse allows you to look around at the view from your seat. In best available or select your own format, patrons are presented with greatly improved experience in seat selection. This feature was a collaboration combining our product, SeatMe, with 3D Digital Venue.
Some of the key takeaways of their session include:
- Learn how Segerstrom Center for the Arts and its patrons benefited from this new application.
- Hear the product’s roadmap.
- Learn that SeatMe can be customized for your venues and needs.
- See a new option available for your organization’s digital transformation journey.
Additionally, while exploring the sponsor section, come and visit our booth where various members of the iMedia team are looking forward to connecting with you. We’d love to show you some of our recent site launches, and our 3D select-your-own-seat application, SeatMe.
SeatMe™ is the first 3D select-your-own-seat application for Tessitura clients. The product delivers a stunning virtual seat shopping experience helping clients within the performing arts sector yield higher ticket sales through more informed customer decision-making.
SeatMe™ allows patrons to not only get a static view from a seat before making the purchase, but also physically look around the theatre in a 3D virtual reality setting. Now, patrons can see what it feels like to be in prime location seats, they see how obstructed view seats either do or do not affect their experience allowing them to make informed choices. They can see distances to exists, stairs, and explore the facility for whatever needs they may have.
