1. A method for delivering a virtual reality (VR) presentation of a real world space to a remote user via a head mounted display (HMD), comprising:

  • sending a request for the VR presentation of the real world space;

    identifying a seat selection within the real world space made by the user, the seat selection being mapped to a real world capture system in the real world space, the real world capture system configured for capturing video and audio at a location that corresponds to the seat selection;

    receiving mapping data for the real world capture system, the mapping data including real world coordinates for the real world capture system;

    accessing a user profile having user preferences of the user;

    receiving a video stream of the real world space from the real world capture system, the video stream including a plurality of video images captured by one or more cameras of the real world capture system, the plurality of images being presented in the HMD from a perspective associated with the real world coordinates of the real world capture system corresponding to the seat selection;

    identifying, from the plurality of images of the video stream, a real world object configured for reskinning during presentation to the user;

    reskinning, based on the user profile, the real world object within the plurality of video images, the reskinning includes overlaying a graphical content element in place of the image data associated with the real world object, the overlaying being geometrically adjusted based on the perspective associated with the real world capture system corresponding to the seat selection; and

    presenting the video stream to the user via the HMD for the VR presentation.
