Virtual Rooms

Short answer

A virtual room is a browser-based space where everyone gathers for a remote shoot. Clients, art directors, and crew join from any browser with nothing to install, while the subject runs the CLOS app on their iPhone or Android as the capture device. The operator directs the camera and the room stays access-controlled and end-to-end encrypted throughout.

Key takeaways

  • Clients and crew join from any browser, no app to install
  • The subject runs the CLOS app as the capture device
  • Rooms are access-controlled so only invited people get in
  • Everyone watches and directs the same live capture together

A shoot everyone can walk into

Virtual rooms are browser-first by design. A client or art director clicks a link and is in the session, with no download, account juggling, or app store detour. The only device running the CLOS app is the subject's phone, which acts as the camera.

That split keeps the experience friction-free for the people approving the work while the capture stays professional. The operator controls the camera and the room becomes the shared set where decisions get made.

Private by default

Every room is access-controlled, so only people you invite can join, and all transfers are end-to-end encrypted. For teams with stricter requirements, Enterprise adds dedicated servers and a data processing agreement.

Rooms power the full range of virtual casting sessions and live client-attended shoots, bringing remote stakeholders into one space without a single install.
