PEOPLE IN MOTION spring '22
Our latest collaboration with Cypress College's Dance and Theater departments was a blast. We used a holographic scrim to
separate frontal and back projections. The Dance department created a choreography that worked well with our particle system designs and the Theater department helped with the rigging and positioning of projectors and the scrim.

COLLABORATION WITH THE MUSIC DEPARTMENT
Over 40 student collaborated in this event. 25 motion design students had to create abstract content using the different section of the song. Each had to design the motion and mood of the piece based on the tempo of the music. Advanced level students had to add audio reactive features to their pieces.
The music was divided into 5 different sections and each section had a color. The projection mapping students mapped out the stage and ceiling fans. They used an EPSON projector, Resolume Arena and After Effects to create this installation. The chorus had to time their singing to the projections thus is was a really fun and challenging experiment.
