3D SCAN CLEANING AND TEXTURING

Again working using scan data from Rapido 3d we retopologised and textured a head scan of Wayne Rooney for Powerade’s latest TV commercial.

Burst and New Opera Hero collaborated with the bilingual theatre company Theatre du Pif on this innovative verbatim piece that explores Hong Kong’s history in a script based on interviews with its residents, from rich to poor.

South China Morning Post (Hong Kong’s main English language paper) said “The stunning production design made a strong visual statement”, “The interaction between theatre and multimedia art created interesting effects…and there were also scenes in which spoken text, movement and audio-visuals were thoughtfully integrated.”
