VISUAL DIRECTION & PROJECTION TECH
VISUAL DIRECTION
Camp Bisco sought to deliver the most mind-blowing projection mapping experience for their fans in 2019. The projection immersed crowds of over ten thousand fans and featured visuals from world-class artists each night. Imaginex and Datagrama were trusted to help execute this by providing media servers, visual direction, and on-site creative technicians. Our creatives also curated unique visual sets for the supporting acts with custom-made content and generative visuals. From pre-production to strike, we ensured every artist had a stress-free experience.
BEHIND THE SCENES
3 MONTHS OUT
Creative director Dave Veler orchestrated a group of creative techs to achieve this massive feat. João Data used drones to create 3D scans of the amphitheater ceiling which allowed for higher quality mapping and a simpler production workflow for every team involved.
1 WEEK OUT
All projection teams reported to Montage Mountain to begin setup. Over one thousand pounds of projectors were put in position, and media servers were tested for redundancy. Under the leadership of Theron Pray, the projectors were calibrated to a higher precision after sundown each night.
OPENING NIGHT
Datagrama arrived at their stations and output a faint signal to confirm all systems ready. Tipper’s headline performance finally revealed the project in its full intent, as graphic software Synesthesia worked impromptu in real time with the music above the heads of the Pavilion audience and on the LED Wall simultaneously (in coordination with Cullen Hassel).
Imaginex continued the projection each night for various artists and for the following week for The Peach Festival. This performance was the first of its kind globally, and a window on more to come in the future from this collaboration.
