Volleyball. Training and Playing.

Sat, Oct 31, 4:00 PM
From Ocean Beach Volleyball Training and Playing. San Francisco
4.9

1001 Great Hwy, San Francisco. Stairwell #17 across from the Beach Chalet. 9:00 start time. Ocean Beach Volleyball Meetup is a training-and-play event for players who want to get better, not just jump straight into games. Everyone starts with three short phases of VBX Volleyball training before open play. VBX is a no-net training system that helps players improve faster by giving them more touches, more rallies, and more chances to read, move, pass, set, and attack in game-like situations. After the VBX warm-up and skill-building phases, players move onto the nets for open play. As the group keeps improving, we’ll also set up more courts geared toward doubles play for players who want a faster, more competitive challenge. All levels are welcome, but the goal is simple: train first, play better, and build a stronger Ocean Beach volleyball community. Let me know how I may help you! Come train, play, and grow with us. See you on the sand! Coach Dale VBX Volleyball Systems 😊🏐😎 Questions? Message me here.

Multi-City Live Theater in VR with Ferryman Collective

Multi-City Live Theater in VR with Ferryman Collective

Wed, Nov 11, 2:00 AM
From Silicon Valley ACM SIGGRAPH
4.7

**Admission $28.52 Purchase on Eventbrite.** [https://www.eventbrite.com/e/multi-city-live-theater-in-vr-with-ferryman-collective-tickets-2003752247913](https://www.eventbrite.com/e/multi-city-live-theater-in-vr-with-ferryman-collective-tickets-2003752247913) **Overview** The Emmy-winning virtual reality experience "Uncanny Alley: A New Day" plays Gray Area San Francisco and Los Angeles at the same time. On November 10, our Los Angeles, San Francisco, Silicon Valley and BayCHI chapters are jointly hosting a live staging of **Uncanny Alley: A New Day**, the Emmy-winning live theatrical experience in virtual reality. It performs simultaneously at **Gray Area** in San Francisco and in Los Angeles: one cast across two stages. **Brendan Bradley** (San Francisco) and **Whitton Frank** (Los Angeles), members of the **[Ferryman Collective](https://www.ferrymancollective.com/ "https://www.ferrymancollective.com/")** who originated these roles, transition seamlessly between improvisation and the scripted hour-long drama, portraying 15 characters. They are joined on each stage by two audience participants, in headset and fully embodied as characters in the virtual world, who can say or do anything to influence the story. Each audience watches its live performers interact with the parallel stage 350 miles away. The production is written and directed by Stephen Butchko, with the world created by Rick Treweek, technical direction by Screaming Color, and artistic direction by Deidre V Lyon. The two-venue architecture was developed by Bradley, who also performs in San Francisco, building on his Edinburgh Fringe 2024 premiere, which ran on-stage, in VR, and livestreamed simultaneously. The question the evening poses: does scene-partner chemistry survive 350 miles? After the performance, the cast will lead us on a “backstage tour” of the company’s groundbreaking techniques in virtual show control. They’ll discuss the technology being developed at Ferryman Collective, and how both locations projected the real-time VR experience at each other’s site. They’ll answer questions about real-time technology that they use for this hour long performance. We would be glad to have you join us. **Brendan Andolsek Bradley** is an award-winning American actor and creator known for his work in 100+ film, television, and digital storytelling projects across major networks and streaming platforms, opposite some of the biggest stars in the world. He established The Innovation Lab at NYU's Tisch School; co-founded The 5th Wall Forum and OnBoardXR, supporting over 50 artists worldwide. His first VR play, *Jettison*, was a Finalist for The Producer Guild of America's Innovation Award and he stars in the VR plays *Welcome To Respite*, *Gumball Dreams,* *Uncanny Alley,* and his original musical *Non-Player Character* which premiered at Edinburgh Fringe and won the Auggie Award for Best Art or Film. **Whitton Frank** is a voice, film, television and theater actor from Los Angeles. Her work in VR includes directing the English premiere of *FindWiiLii*, performing in the award winning immersive VR worlds of *The Under Presents* and *The Tempest*, as well as the Ferryman Collective productions *PARA*, and the award winning shows *Welcome to Respite* and *Gumball Dreams*. A Ferryman team member since 2020, she is now a producer and director as well. She is a graduate of two prestigious acting universities, Carnegie Mellon University and the London Academy of Music and Dramatic Art, and is a recipient of CMU’s Tartans on the Rise award. She is currently a sought after speaker at tech and immersive events around the world.

Volleyball. Training and Playing

Volleyball. Training and Playing

Sat, Oct 31, 4:00 PM
From Ocean Beach Volleyball Training and Playing. San Francisco
4.9

Whether you’re starting out or looking for a place to play, you’ve landed in the right place.
You’re going to meet people who are going to help you get better as well as those who will become long time playing buddies. 



You’ll have an opportunity to learn how to get better the fastest way possible - but you’ll have to ask personally - everyone’s different. 😊
Join us whether it’s training, tournaments, or open play! 



You may come regularly or every now and then. Play for hours or a short while. You will find volleyball joy that will brighten your weekend or enough to change your life! 



Please RSVP to let me know you’re coming BUT note that most players don’t RSVP. There will be 20-30+ players and most of them come around 10:30. I’m at the beach early to help players improve in one or all of three areas - physical, technical, or mental. 



Bring what you would normally bring to the beach for a four hour stay. There is a bathroom across the street at the Beach Chalet which opens at 10:00. There are also bathrooms at the Beach Chalet sports field which is a six minute walk or at Safeway which is a five minute walk. 



Equipment and all fees associated with putting on this event including creating this MeetUp group is out of pocket. My intent is to make this event readily available and affordable. Donations are very much appreciated.
You may Venmo me @Dale Alvarez (smirking face emoji) 7330 or Zelle at jobealvarez@yahoo.com or 925-262-7330. Thanks so much! (I love your appreciative “thank-yous” but that doesn’t pay for the nets, balls, anchors, carabiners, gas, etc.) 🥰 



You’ll find that all you really need to start to enjoy beach volleyball is a ball and someone to play with (even though we have a bunch of other stuff and many like minded players.
I’m looking forward to contributing to your 3-4 hours of volleyball enjoyment!
