Completed in October 2022, my contribution to this image mapped light installation show included 3D scanning and modeling services. I actually became certified in 3D scanning using the Artec 3D scanner and software for a different client, but BLINK needed their assets swiftly as the pandemic ambiguity cut into the project planning duration, and therefore the 3D asset modeling time. The light show used a light projection mapping service based out of Spain. I worked closely with the executive director from BLINK, the original muralist, and the mapping team to deliver 3D assets giving the final animation realistic depth compared to a traditional 2D image map. Tools used included: Artec 3D scanner + processing software, Blender, Illustrator, image mapping projection systems, Adobe After Effects, lighting and cameras.
