The hall
Rows of red seats, one giant screen
The FreeWorlds Cinema is a hall in black and red, kept dark for the film: the sconces on its walls, the lights along its steps and the screen itself are what light it. The seats run in rows either side of a centre aisle, with a red carpet and rope at the door.
Every seat is a real seat. Click one and your avatar sits down in it, next to whoever is in the seat beside you.
- 50 theater seats In rows either side of the aisle, all facing the screen.
- One big screen The FreeWorlds Cinema Screen fills the front wall.
- Speakers and subs Floor speakers and subwoofers either side of the screen.
From your seat
The view from the row you chose
World's camera usually looks down on a room from a corner. Sit down in the Cinema and the cinema view takes over instead: the screen straight ahead, the rows in front of you, and the people around you drawn as their own avatars.
- Seat view, Closer or Video only Pick how much of the hall you see round the screen.
- Fullscreen Give what's playing the whole of your screen, then come back to your seat.
- Stand up Leave your seat, or go back to the room's usual view, whenever you like.
What plays
A movie night the whole hall shares
The screen plays YouTube videos and SoundCloud tracks for everyone in the room, at the same moment. Anyone in the hall can add something to its playlist and press play.
Paste a link
Open the screen's Watch together panel and add a YouTube or SoundCloud link.
In sync
One playhead for the whole hall: someone who walks in late joins at the right moment.
Vote together
Give what's on a thumbs up, or vote it off and skip to the next one.
Each person's browser plays the video in YouTube's or SoundCloud's own player. MatchFlow doesn't copy, store or stream it again.
