About us
We're here to talk about, program, share, and demonstrate software, hardware, and ideas for the upcoming new wave of virtual reality. Whether you're an avatar who spends more time in virtual worlds than the real one or someone who's never even worn a head mounted display, you'll find a great group of people who love VR. Each month we bring in presenters from companies who are pioneering VR technology and also feature an array of demonstrations created by our local VR developers. They can help you embark comfortably on your first VR experience or dive deep into VR design and discuss the latest news from the fast changing world of VR. We are a government certified 501(c)(3) non-profit organization which means that all ticket fees and donations are dedicated to putting on more VR events in Boston and that all donations are tax deductible.

Model a Town in Blender!

Watertown Public Library, Room: Lucia Mastrangelo Meeting Room
Description:
This event is run though the Boston Virtual Reality Meetup Group. At the March meetup, John Gagan will demonstrate how to create a low poly town in Blender. We will create the houses, trees and ground using the usual modeling tools, as well as the Array Modifier and Solidify Modifier. We will use the powerful Asset Browser to organize and implement the models and materials.
After the demo, people can collaborate and network. Light snacks will be served. Please note that we are meeting at 1pm this month, not 3pm.
John Gagan is a seven-year veteran in Blender 3D, four of which he spent as the head of the Boston Blender Group.
For those participating who are new to the world of Blender please-
- Bring your laptops and preferably a '3 button mouse'
