Immersive dome
Shared Sky
Guests look up into a projected sky and, if the brief calls for it, influence a shared scene together.
Useful for: Signature temporary spaces · Night-sky storytelling · Shared seated experiences
Concept · no dome deliveredStudio planning allowance · CAD
Scoped after feasibility
Before HST. Third-party costs are additional:
Dome shell, projection, audio, power, site works and operation require dedicated vendor pricing.
Initial programme
Set after feasibility
site design and the chosen dome system determine the programme.
What we build for your brief
These are the studio workstreams for this direction. The agreed proposal defines the deliverables and separates hardware and other vendor costs.
- A concept and feasibility scope
Define the audience, story and site requirements with a suitable dome partner.
- The sky or film content
Scope the 360-degree visuals, sound and any chosen collective interaction.
- The dome integration plan
Validate content, projection geometry and entry flow against the actual shell before a build commitment.
The guest journey: Enter together → Look into the world → Follow the story → Return to the site
Why this is a credible starting point
Existing capability
The studio has a multi-projector and 360-degree content pipeline.
What is developed for this version
This is a concept, not a previously delivered dome. Shell, projection integration, access and operating feasibility need site design.
Operating snapshot
- Space and power
- Illustrated 36 ft dome with entry/service ring: roughly 50 × 50 ft of suitable level ground.
- Guests and pace
- Seating, accessible positions, exits and show length determine the approved audience capacity during site design.
- People to run it
- A host controls entry and sessions; technical and shell-operation responsibilities need a vendor-supported plan.
Confirm with the venue
- The dome supplier must confirm structural, fire, ventilation, weather and anchoring requirements.
- Plan step-free entry, suitable seating, hearing access and routes out during the show.
- Projector geometry and content brightness must be validated in the actual shell.
During the run
The first useful step is a feasibility scope covering the site, shell partner and content approach. Installation, daily checks, weather decisions and return visits are costed once that model is known.
What the recap can tell you
Admissions and session occupancy can be counted through the agreed entry process. Any interaction measures are defined with the chosen mechanic during feasibility.
Next step: shape the scope together.
Send the studio your audience, event date or timing, venue if known, and the action you want guests to take. The conversation can identify the creative direction, venue checks and whether a prototype is needed before a build proposal.
hello@secretlocation.com · Selected idea and sample
Planning allowance in CAD, before HST. Studio creative and software are separate from third-party hardware, fabrication and site costs. Final scope and live operating hours are agreed in the proposal. This is a planning illustration, not a quote or a guarantee of guest throughput or commercial results.
