Projection Mapping Workshop at BYOB Utrecht

We're proud to power the projection mapping workshop which the kind folks from DEFRAME are hosting in Utrecht this weekend. Be sure to check out the rest of the event, which is also showing a light painting installation from our very own Tim!



Why would we keep those pixels locked up in our screens, when we can also make them part of our physical reality?

Projecting a digital image on existing architectural objects is a phenomena that's being used increasingly, especially in the field of arts and advertising. This technique is called Projection Mapping, in which we blend virtual reality with our physical one. As such, we create new ways of looking at familiar objects. We can change how we experience flattened imagery, by adding spacial and sculptural qualities of the world around us.
During the afternoon, you'll learn how to create your very own mapping. This workshop is suitable for makers of digital imagery, who would like to approach their own material from a different perspective and present their results at the BYOB-evening.

Requirements
- Laptop
- Adobe After Effects (trial download)
- VJ software: Resolume Arena (trial download)

If you already have your own videos/animations/photos you would like to use, you can bring those along. It's also possible to use your own objects to map on. Please do pay attention to the shapes/colors; white, rather simple objects work best.

This workshop is tutored by DEFRAME, an Utrecht-based collective. Sign up here.
