Star Wars Projection Mapping Mural

Published

Star Wars: Rouge One is already shaping up to a big start. Cromatics from Germany, created an animated projection mapping mural, combining a massive real world mural with 20,000 lumens of projected content. The goal was to design the static painted mural with subtle projected animation, such that drivers weren’t too distracted by the effects (but still noticed the magic).

Cromatics coined this concept of mural and projection mapping, Motion Mural, which is similar to work by Joanie LeMercier and Phil Reyneri. This idea has ties to academia, including Projectibles (an old grad school project of mine)

and the original work Super-imposing dynamic range by Oliver Bimber.

It’s really cool to see the idea in the wild, as a full-fledged Star Wars advertisement.

Thanx to XI-Design, StillinMotion, Professional Media Service und Thomas Schlorke.

The festival kicks off next month

There’s a dazzling projection art event coming to Sharjah.

Sharjah Light Festival is returning for 2022 with 11 nights of colourful projections and music. If this year is anything like previous festivals, our eyes are in for a treat.

The colourful festival is the first and only of its kind in the region and has been running for over ten years. It attracts thousands of visitors to up to 20 locations in Sharjah each year. The designs are inspired by local culture, stories and traditions.

The 2022 Sharjah Light Festival goes from February 9 to February 20 and is organized by the Sharjah Commerce and Tourism Development Authority.

The festival brings a kaleidoscope of creative lights and colour to Sharjah’s architecture. Diverse locations are featured during the annual show, with light and sound spectacles that transform them. (Have your camera ready.) The festival uses energy-saving lighting technology and all the lights and projectors used have passed certification for environmental compliance.

The Sharjah Light Festival also showcases the emirate’s rich heritage and historical monuments. Local and international artists, musicians and light technicians collaborate to showcase the emirate’s achievements.
