For Soft Opening, Museum.Live’s Virtual Tour Creator is available for hands-on testing at the following link: https://softsdemo-museum-live.pantheonsite.io/.
Using the Virtual Tour Creator, museum staff are able to upload, organize, and present digital media to tour guests via Zoom screen share.

Following Softs, the remaining work for the team is broadly as follows:
-Launch the website for each museum with paid hosting.
-Update the above tutorial to reflect changes in the build/voice over tutorial script
-Develop video tutorials for how to use the website with Zoom and also how to set up the website for the first time.
-Wrap up documentation (both a User manual and technical documentation)

Feel free to send us any questions or suggestions you have! Otherwise we look forward to seeing you at Softs!
