About the Show
Designing Worlds, formerly Meta Makeover, is the hit weekly show covering design and designers in the virtual worlds, brought to you by Treet.tv, the virtual environment's leading cable network, and Prim Perfect productions, the people behind Prim Perfect magazine and the Prim Perfect blog. From its roots as a makeover show, the programme has now branched out into a magazine format adding interviews and visits to some of the most impressive builds and locations in Second Life and beyond.
The show goes out on Mondays at 2pm SLT, and is presented by Saffia Widdershins, the Editor of Prim Perfect Magazine, and Elrik Merlin of Radio Riel.
In a typical makeover-style show (now rather uncommon), we take a house and make it over, deploying up to three skilled designers – who might tackle a room each, or a floor, or a garden. They’ll be interviewed about why they’ve made the choices that they have – with the delighted (or appalled) owner having a chance to say what they love or loathe about their new home.
On other occasions, we’ll talk to home owners who have recently had their homes remodeled and the designers who helped them do it. We discuss the issues affecting design and designers working in the virtual environment, such as intellectual property and the latest design techniques, with “how-to” features for budding designers and builders. And we visit some of the most impressive builds, meet their designers and explore their work.
On every show, you’ll meet some of the top builders, creators and designers in today’s virtual worlds – and you’re guaranteed a wealth of new ideas, products and venues.
We also broadcast from the elegant Prim Perfect headquarters in Costa Rica in front of a live audience – where there's also a viewing area where you can watch location-based shows as they go out.
