Renaissance faire season, product updates, and website things too..

by

How is your renaissance faire season coming along? On the West Coast and throughout much of the US, there is a definite season from Spring through Fall. And for most of us in the States, faires and festivals are opening all over. Some folks are racing out the door, so happy to be in public again and some folks are sitting back, waiting to see what happens. Either way, these are heady times for sure. I personally am eager to attend Northern California Renaissance Faire this coming fall. Like really really eager. I’m already drinking my water to get ready for the heat! I am pestering the vendor coordinator. EAGER.

Another Renaissance Festival I participate at is going online this year. I’ve written about it recently, you should dig a bit further back into my blog posts and read up on it. Koroneburg Online, heck ya! I’m all ready all ready. Well, I’ve done my prep and am keeping a weather eye on the proceedings.

Product updates

I am getting my inventory plumped up at last. The latest and greatest on my website for this renaissance faire season are these faboo(tm) Linen Bodices in camel. If you’ve ever been to a renfaire in high heat, this is the bodice you probably should have worn. Breathable, strong and with a bit of give for a softer silhouette than a thick heavy bodice. I’ve engineered it to strengthen the wear areas and I think its a winner. You will too, it makes a huge difference.

Website things

This is a bit technical. So, I’ve been fighting a battle with Facebook and losing. It seems that my websites of all the bazillion of them on this planet are the only ones that cannot generate an accurate link preview. This has been going on a while, and it was mildly irritating before. Now I’m *very* irritated and done with the workarounds. So I have enlisted the help of a Web Developer to figure this shit out. He’s doing, things. Fingers crossed we reach some kind of stasis soon, yes? So, don’t be alarmed if pages are different shapes and images change. Its gonna be okay.

Koroneburg Online Renaissance Festival 2021

by

Its kinda crazy, but kinda genius. The management team (no longer the new guys I suppose) at Koroneburg Renaissance Festival are going virtual this year with an online renaissance festival. They hosted a virtual faire on the website last year and this year will be a bit different. This is more like a simulation game. They are building an online environment that one enters and sees the sights, shows, shops etc. Bear with my nontechnical telling of this story, its pretty cool.

So, I’m game. Am I going to be online inside the sim? Not planning on it. I’m not a video player person. Never have been. But I’m for sure a Koroneburg team player and for sure I support this new concept. It might even be a bit of fun for me.

Inside this virtual festival, the patron pays a fee to enter the sim online. There’s lots to see and do, and they can move about in the festival to check different things out. The patron can enter my virtual shop (click through a picture of my shop at Koroneburg I am thinking). There may or may not be a video of me or pictures of the inside, not sure yet. Then, by clicking on an ‘item image’ they can be linked to my online store. Pretty nifty, I think. I am tempted to attempt a Max Headroom style intro video… hehehh.. Yes, I am that old.

Martina the Creative OverlordSo, my task at this point is to gather together some of my best images and links and organize them like a shop is presented. Maybe a video too, and I’ll throw in a coupon for the webstore in case anyone clicks through to shop for real costumes. Easy peasy.

Plans are for the official start date as June 16th.We will run Wednesdays 6-10 and Saturdays 1-5 for 5 weekends from that date.

Keep in touch for more about this innovative project, and join me in an OOOfah! Well done David and the Koroneburg Online Renaissance Festival team!
