It is a performance clip with a 3D representation of the musician Dan Sultan as a sculptural bust. I came up with some visual concepts that would match key points in the song relating to the lyrics.The music video Magnetic is a hybrid of new media technologies 3D printing, projection mapping, stop motion and some 3D animation. I was inspired by the Peter Gabriel's Sledgehammer but wanted to take it to take it beyond the traditional pixelation technique and use new media technologies including 3D printing, projection mapping and 3D animation.
Millumin Movement Full Range Of
As there was a lot of 3D printing to be done we needed to work out the best settings for the printers to produce the best quality prints in the quickest time possible. There were 11 phonemes a unit of sound in speech, or mouth shapes that were also printed so when put together formed the words for lip syncing.Agisoft PhotoScan For the 3D face/headscanMillumin and VDMX for the projection mapping3D printing, Stop motion, animation, 3D animation, projection mapping, music videoThere was a considerable amount of research that went into this project for its successful outcome. We made a 30cm high bust of Dan with a movable head and replaceable mouth and eye pieces so we could animate the full range of facial expressions and movement. This was done by taking a series of photos of Dan at various angles which were then stitched together to create a 3D model. Interaction is achieved by watching the videoThe first step in the process of making Magnetic was to create a 3D scan of Dan’s head and face. Two months in the making, over 60 individual 3D printed pieces and over 2700 photos.As this project is a video it does not require operation.
Millumin Movement How To Print All
For this we used a ball and socket joint. Also we need to research the best method for attaching and swapping out the head of the printed bust. We ended up using five 3D printers simultaneously to reduce the print time. I used small magnets for this.The main challenge was how to print all the 3D elements in the short amount of time that was required for the production. The other areas that needed to be considered were how to physically attach the different mouth pieces or phonemes so that they could be easily swapped out for animating.
Our attention to detail means we go beyond expectations to deliver the best possible outcome on each and every project. Our experience spans live action film, motion-graphics and animation, with a specialisation in stop-motion.We are passionate about great ideas underpinned by strong craftsmanship. 3D animation was used when 3D printing large complex objects was too difficult and expensive.Jonathan Chong: Director, stop-motion animator, Shawn Miller: 3D animator, Christopher Langton: 3D printer and Sean Healy: Projection mappingDropbear is a film and animation studio based in Melbourne, Australia.Founded by designer/filmmaker Jonathan Chong, Dropbear creates outstanding moving-image pieces for clients across the commercial, community, cultural and music industries.We collaborate with animators, illustrators, art directors and other craftspeople to deliver unique, charming, and entertaining stories.
