Bruke en Optoma GT1080 for å dekke et par hvite Nikesko, en hvit plate de står på, og hvite veggplater rundt. Elevene skal videomappe Skoene, bruke "Spacial Scan" i "Madmapper", Photoshop, After Effetcs og Madmapper

De skal komme opp med et helhetlig uttrykk i grafikk og animasjon. Dere må ha et planlagt konsept på plass og bruke Moodboard og eksempler på tilsvarende prosjekt før dere får animere og videomappe.

Animasjonene skal gå i loop på ca.10-20 sek, og vi skal lage GIFS av de i etterkant

Hver gruppe bruker et Canon speilrefleks for dokumentasjon og live bilde inn til Canon Camera Capture for fjernstyring av kamerainnstillinger og filming

Plass: 6 elever (max 3 pr.gruppe)

Elevene skal først se Blade Runner (den første) og lage moodboards på den visuelle estetikken i filmen: lys, design, teksturer, skilt, symbol etc. Man kan også ta utgangspubnk i den siste Blade Runner filmen, men da må dere på kino med skriveblokka deres...:)

Dere skal så bygge en miniatyrby i pap med dimensjonen 4 m i bredden og 2 m i høyden.
Dere skal videomapp den hvte pappbyen med animerte skilt, grafikk, teksturer og animasjoner.

Dere tar i bruk tre projektorer som sørger for at modellen av byen blir fullestendig dekket

1. BenqSp840: Projsierer rett ned på modelle via spiel.
2. Venstre vinkel: Optoma GT1080
3. Høyre vinkel: Optoma GT1080

Modellen skal bygges og videomappes på scenen i Aulaen med stedsspesikk lyd med 10 iphones skjult i pappen på modellen.

Plass: 9 elever (max 3 pr.gruppe)
PS: 1 elev kan ha ansvar for å lage lydbildet til byen. (eksportert fra multirack med 10 spor, til 10 mp3filer so de 10 iphonsene skal spille av. Sørg for at lyden går i sømløse loops!

# data[].attributes.body
Elevene skal ta 5 portretter av noen og videomappe dem som knuste fragmenter på oppkjærte capaplater, og strødd, hengt og limt på vegger. Dere skal i et av de rommene bak de sorte forhengene lage en portrettfoto-installasjon med videomapping.

På en Ipad kan de besøkende velge hvilke portrett de skal se i installasjonen med egenlagd MIDI-kontroller på en iPad med Lemur eller TouchOSC. Ipaden står på iPadstativ (som min installasjon i Svelvik Kirke)

Plass: 3 elever (individuell løsning på portrettene)

If you are the kind of person who loves making things - and I'm guessing you are, I mean you are reading this blog! - then Papercraft is for you!

What? Origami? Well, kind of...more like complex paper crafted models, built with your own hands, brought to life by projection mapping. Sounds good? Ok, stay with me.

This is a very DIY activity. Papercraft can be very time consuming, but also very rewarding! You can get creative in all sorts of ways. You can build architectural projects, animals, all sorts of transportation models (ships, planes, trains...) all kinds of Pokemon, giant skulls, and much more!

Here is a practical guide for beginners, including super useful recommendations, like which kind of printer or glue to use, cutting and folding techniques, and the important fact that cardstock is better than regular paper!

If you have the designer and tech skills you can use any modelling/rendering software to develop your prototypes (Maya, Blender, 3d Studio Max...etc.) and then build them with paper and scissors. You can also download tools like Pepakura which are a great help for the design. Pepakura has a consolidated user community. Step by step tutorials and videos are available to help you start the creating experience.

Also, there are a lot of Papercraft online stores on Etsy where you can download templates like these:

So many models to choose from! These are some of our favorite Etsy shops: PaperWorlf shop, Pologonia, and LP Objects.

But wait... how does projection mapping come into this?

Well, I'll leave it to the artists to show us how to create magic out of paper...

Low Poly Models, Amazing Projections

Daniel Bruning modelled these low poly animals in Autodesk Maya, and then using Pepakura he "flattened the models to make them printable." His prototypes include a horse and two bears, and they are around 50cm wide and 40cm tall.

In the above video, we see how a low poly model can become a beautiful projection mapping installation. It's a personal project homemade by Eugene Shestopalov. Imagine having this in the walls of your house or office. It will definitely draw attention!

Another interesting papercraft video, a quick tutorial by George Berlin. He built a heart-shaped projection sculpture from a 3d model designed using 3d Studio Max, Pepakura, plus "lot's of cardboard and glue"

If you want to try low poly papercraft for yourself here is an easy to follow guide on how to build a wolf mask. Sweet!

Giant Skulls Sculptures

Artist Angie Jones built this after-life projection for a contest held by HeavyM and it is simply marvellous! She used Maya and Pepakura for designing the prototype, HeavyM software for the effects and Artograph Digital Art Projector. You can see the behind the scenes of how she made it all work. Also, if you want to know more, we really recommend you read this great detailed post by Lumo Interactive where Angie says how "prototyping in paper helped identify some serious structural issues".

While not made out of paper (it's actually made of wood, and it's much larger!) we'd be remiss not to mention Bart Kresa's Shugyou Mugo as one of our favorite projection mapped skulls. His creations are always in the realm of the spectacular. This particular project is a traveling art installation that has "evolved into a 360 musically driven, interactive visual centerpiece that has been featured at festivals, creative conferences, and entertainment events." Developed by BARTKRESA studio and sculptor Josh Harker, we can't keep our eyes of it!

Magic onto PaperCraft Dioramas

David and Kristin McGuire are amongst the most talented artists in the world of miniature paper dioramas. They are architects of magic! They have created amazing works of craft including the world's first projection mapped pop-up book (and a more recent theatre book of Macbeth), other theatrical installations, a paper rendering of the Eiffel Tower, a beautiful Geppetto-like story performance, and this amazing homage to Hitchcock's Psycho, which has a sellable version:

I hope this has inspired you to start creating your own papercraft. Art can be anything that you want it to be. Give it a try! And don't forget to share your awesome projects with us: [email protected]

Head-turning projection mapping has become commonplace at events like music festivals, product launches or shows, but that doesn't make the spectacle any less mind-blowing. Projecting video onto surfaces such as buildings, to create the illusion of 3D art, used to be a fledgling art form but it has grown into a phenomenon.

Unlike flat projection, video projection mapping turns any object into a screen - such as a building - and project onto its walls without any distortion. Often site-specific, the best projection mapping projects succeed by enhancing rather than effacing the architecture they're beamed onto. And the sheer scale of any projection mapping project can be breathtaking - just look at the expressions on the audience's faces during a projection and you'll often see a childlike glee.

Read on to discover some of the best projection mapping demos from recent years. Explore other examples of art outside with our roundup of brilliant street art, or to explore awesome architecture, see these incredible famous buildings.

01. Baird Manor, Utah

One for the spooky season, this projection experience is terrifying, with brilliantly-synced up audio and jumpy moments galore. Digital effects expert Hauntworks uses the house's architecture to highlight ghosts in the windows, a haunted ballroom and super-creepy portraits all over the walls. Just don't watch it on your own.

02. Tuwaiq Mountains, Qiddiya

A brilliant example of site-specific projection mapping is this stunning representation of the genesis of the Tuwaiq Mountains in Saudi Arabia, created in 2020 to show highlight how Qiddiya is set to become the Kingdom's capital of entertainment, sports and the arts. The show displays the Volcanic and Ice Age origins to the inception of Qiddiya today. Using a total of 84 projectors, the projection is on a huge scale - covering a massive area of approximately 32,000 square meters. Find out more here.

03. Borderless

Japanese art collective TeamLab used projection mapping technologies to craft a magical dream world in the Digital Art Museum in Odaiba, Tokyo. In it, different concepts and scenes flow together to form one 'borderless' world.

"Artworks move out of the rooms freely, form connections and relationships with people, communicate with other works, influence and sometimes intermingle with each other," explains the exhibition's description. Hosted in a vast, 10,000 square metre space, the installation is brought to life using 520 computers and 470 projectors.

04. Palacio Barolo

To celebrate Argentina's bicentenary, there were huge parties across the country. In Buenos Aires, celebrations saw a massive projection onto one of the capital's most famous buildings, the Palacio Barolo, which is said to be created around the concept of Dante's Divine Comedy.

The projection mapping by Ula Ula Productions saw silhouettes of dancing figures projected onto the building, creating an atmospheric and mesmerising piece.

05. Terraform Table

Tellart 's Terraform table enabled users to 'play God'. Located at London's V&A Museum, projection mapping turned the giant sandpit into a rugged landscape, with mountains, valleys and lakes. Here's the cool bit: thanks to a machine learning algorithm, the Table was able to read the height of the sand and respond to any changes. In short, this means you could dig a hole to form a lake, raise a hill to create a snowy peak, or smooth a river over to expand a forest.

The Table formed part of the V&A's tech-focused The Future Starts Here exhibition (which ran until November 2018), and was created as a response to the question: Should we shape the Earth and other planets for human use?

06. Bloom

Established in 1947 to provide a platform for the flowering of the human spirit in the aftermath of the Second World War, the Edinburgh International Festival celebrated its 70th anniversary in 2017. To mark the occasion, 59 Productions conceived an opening event that transformed the whole of St Andrew Square into a magical night garden. Buildings burst into life in a floral explosion of colour, texture and sound.

Rather than being a one-off event, Bloom ran for two nights at the start of the festival, from 10pm to midnight on a 20-minute loop, allowing the audience to enjoy the spectacle at their own pace.

07. Interconnection

The winner of both the Jury's Choice and People's Choice awards at the 2016 iMapp Bucharest competition, Interconnection transformed the Palace of Parliament in Bucharest, Romania, into a psychotropic exploration of the interconnectedness of all things, man.

Created by Limelight, this projection mapping project draws inspiration from contemporary visionary art and architecture, sacred geometry, physics and chemistry, and mixes them all up into a properly mind-altering five-minute trip.

08. Wear the Rose

In September 2015, the O2 joined forces with Projection Artworks to create the world's largest projection mapping project to celebrate the Rugby World Cup. Making use of 68 projectors and more than 122 moving head light fixtures, the project saw the roof of the venue transformed into the English rose emblem. According to the O2, the show could be seen from space.

09. Harrods' Fabergé egg

Projection Artworks was also part of the team that created the world's brightest projection mapping show in Easter 2015. Global design consultancy Just So collaborated with Projection Artworks to illuminate the windows of world-famous department store Harrods.

Conceived for Fabergé's Easter storefront display, the 360-degree mapped 3D installation was based on the company's pendent designs - which are 1/100th of the size of the 1.5m model - and incorporated an interactive touchscreen element to showcase the detail of the jewellery.

10. Box

This video from Bot & Dolly and GMUNK was created without any special effects. As the performer engages with a morphing set, unfathomable shapes, graphics and animations are revealed. The video eventually shows that it is in fact, a robotic mechanism hidden behind every illusion.

Using their state-of-the-art robotic camera systems 'Iris' and 'Scout', the technique allows for millimetre precision of the robot arms.

11. Battersea Power Station Annual Party

Battersea Power Station invited Drive, a UK-based agency that specialises in projection mapping, to create an awe-inspiring visual experience to raise awareness for the iconic building's spectacular redevelopment. This is the result: 360,000 lumens of immersive visuals celebrating the building's past, present and future.

12. Tokyo Station Vision

JR East celebrates the opening of the reconditioned Tokyo Station with a spectacular projection mapping experiment by NHK Enterprise. Brickwork peels away to reveal pistons; clockwork automata strum pilasters while trumpets and cymbals blow and crash from behind bays; at one point a route-map inscribes itself across the facade like a 150m long game of Snake.

This is a great projection, which is sympathetic not only to the architectonics of the building, but its function too.

13. Dr Blighty at Brighton Pavilion

Dr Blighty was a free production that became one of the highlights of the 2016 Brighton Festival, transforming the Brighton Pavilion, on England's south coast, into an Indian scene. Produced by Nutkhut and animated by motion design and projection mapping specialist NOVAK, it celebrated Brighton Pavilion's history as a WWI hospital for wounded Indian soldiers. A specially commissioned soundtrack rounded off the colourful event.

14. Speed of Light

Not all projection mapping examples can be measured in metres. Sharp and Jenkins' Speed of Light film bills itself as the worlds smallest all action police chase. Using hand-held micro projectors with an iPhone video source, Tom Jenkins and Simon Sharp create a dynamic and witty chase that plays out across the surfaces of their own office, and proves that size isn't everything.

15. As Above, So Below

Light Harvest assembled a whole team of artists for this unusual mapping for Manhattan Bridge. The animation makes great use of the facade of the bridge but where it really shines is in the tunnels underneath. The entire curved ceiling becomes animated, and when entering the tunnel, the audience becomes immersed in the projection.

16. Sweater

Using two walls, a treadmill, and some nifty projection, director Filip Sterckx creates a virtual world for the musician Willow's music video. As with most projection mapping projects, it's the technique that charms here.

Singer Pieter-Jan Van Den Troost gropes at doors that aren't really there, trots on the spot down imaginary stairs, and kneels pretending to be paddling in the sea. It's all surprisingly lo-tech, and all the better for it.

17. Lighting the Sails

Jørn Utzon's inspiration for Sydney Opera House's iconic shell roof is brought to life in this work by Urban Screen. The roofs appear as fabric ship sails, undulating in the wind. The distinctive chevron tiles - a labour of love for Utzon - pulse, fold, and rupture to reveal the rich interiors.

All of Urban Screen's projections are worth watching, particularly Tag und Nacht for its clever interplay between in the interior and exterior, and the seminal 555 Kubik.

18. Scintillation

Xavier Chaissaing's super low budget film demonstrated what an inventive artist can achieve with limited resources. The film was shot with a DSLR and a motion control rig made by the artist himself.

Its innovative mix of stop motion footage and live camera projection is particularly bewitching in the scenes where the projection is viewed through the translucent petals of a flower.

19. Omicron

One of the few permanent installations in this list, Omicron can be seen at the Hala Stulecia museum of Architecture in Wroclaw, Poland.

Romain Tardy's minimalist aesthetic takes its inspiration from the period in which the dome was built and does an incredible job of highlighting its structural qualities, making the heavy concrete construction light and dynamic. The making-of video is interesting, too.

20. Sagrada Familia (Ode à la vie)

Gaudi's plans for a polychrome facade on the Sagrada Familia have been realised, albeit only for 15 minutes. Moment Factory combined video projection, gobos, sharp beam lights projecting beams into the sky, and lighting from the interior to create a spectacle it describes as a, "living fresco made of colour, light and sound".

To work with the complex geometry of the cathedral, a 3D scan was used to help map and light a show that works with the host architecture in brilliant symbiosis.
