Red Light Center Lagoon Region C

Red Light Center Lagoon Region Concept

by Brian Shuster

This presents the conceptual drawings and description for the water fantasy region for the Red Light Center, The Lagoon, released in 2007.

The Lagoon will be made up of two separate maps, the Sunken Ship and the Private Cave regions. The Sunken Ship Region will allow users to enter in from the street and consists of a large pool that has a glass covered tube that winds under the surface along its length. This design borrows from the beautiful design of San Francisco's Aquarium of the Bay

This will allow users to walk in from the street and interact with users on the other side of the glass already swimming in the water.

We will both reuse some existing tropical fish and aquatic plants from the existing fish tank and create a large selection of new fish.

Below is a plan view of the Aquatic Start Region.

In the lower right is the entrance from the street to a room that contains the water entrance pool and underwater walkway. To enter the water to swim the users will walk straight ahead down steps leading into an entrance pool. The covered glass tube walkway connects to the starting room on both sides. Users can go either left or right as the glass covered walkway circles all the way around the sunken ship.

A mermaid is provided for a size reference of the characters to this map.

This region would contain tropical fish, aquatic plants, and star fish and larger sea life like sharks, manta rays, and sea turtles.

The Sunken ship could be entered by swimmers and the interior explored.

Here is a rough sketch of the entrance to the underwater walkway just after entering from the street.
In this drawing you can see a large glass semi dome that shows a view of the water.
In the water you can see some fish and the sunken ship in the distance. In front of the dome is the square pool entrance where the users can enter the water to swim. Though not clearly shown in the sketch there are steps that lead into and out of the water.
To each side are the two entrances to the glass covered walkway.

Here are some quicky diagramatic renders of the interior of the start region room.

And a view of the entrance room from the water. You can see the glass dome that would extend into the water
and a diagramatic view of the glass covered walkways.

I envision the larger animals like the Shark/Rays/Turtles will only swim through periodically.
We could animate several different paths they could take over time through this map.
Below is a quick sketch of the sunken pirate ship with the glass covered walkway winds around behind it.

Inside the sunken ship will be a treasure chest. We will create a more extensive ship interior region that will be teleported to
as a separate map. You will be able to enter/exit this sub map via a central hold amidships.

There is a tunnel that leads to another region of the map that has a cliff side with a series of cave/room entrances.
Users can go into these mermaid rooms to have private sexual experiences.

The next region would be a cliff area that would have a series of cave/room entrances.
The users could pair off and retire to these for sexual encounters.
In the sketch below you can also see the glass tube walkway winding past the cave facade.

Going inside of these entrances would place the users into their own private room. The room would maintain the mermaid/underwater motif. There would be a large clam shell that could be used as a bed. The lights could be large nautilus shells.

Overall this region will be a fantastic addition to the Red Light Center world providing a great place
for aquatic themed fun, fantasy and sex.

We will also have a region of the map were users can swim amongst a huge school of jellyfish.
This area would be to the right of the cliff/cave entrance.

Here are the initial renders of the mermaid model

Below is a list of model and animation assets we will need to create for this region.
