Today, we’re excited to announce Studio Share—a new feature in Oculus Medium that lets you and a friend sculpt in the same virtual space!

While you work simultaneously on your own sculpts, you can share tips and tricks, show off your skills, and get feedback on your art in real time. You can even record your session or take selfies to share on the Oculus Forum.

Professional artists can use Studio Share for uniquely interactive creative reviews—to talk through designs, get a quick sense of scale, or experiment with camera angles.

Studio Share is currently in beta, and we look forward to your feedback.

Online Inspiration

We added a “Featured Artist” section on the Medium webpage, where we’ll highlight a diverse roster of artists.
