Artists in Motion - AIM

Artists in Motion was commissioned by MDLBEAST for the 2nd year running to deliver the visual content for Balad Beast music festival in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. AIM worked with some of the world’s leading designers and content creators - a total of 5 x Creative Directors, 15 x 3D and 2D animation artists, plus 5 x VJs and real-time artists – to produce 300 laser-scanned projection templates and 210,000 frames of animation in just five weeks. The deep-saturated colours and high-energy animations kept festival goers pumped throughout the 2-day festival, along with performances from Wu-Tang Clan, Bebe Rexha and DJ Snake. @mdlbeast #baladbeast #baladbeast24 #mdlbeast #artists_in_motion

Artists in Motion developed the content for the LIWA 2024 Desert Festival, Abu Dhabi, one of the Middle East's more prominent motorsports events held on and around Moreeb Dune. The 300m-high sand dune was the canvas for AIM's projected content - 3 x 6-minute films celebrating the race, the festival, and the dune itself, plus themed projections across the three racing days. @liwastories @moreeb_dune @themiralgroup #liwa #moreebdune

A peek behind the scenes in the making of Dream Circus, Luna Park. Artists in Motion filmed real performers against green screen so they could be fused with digitally-created fantastical scenes to provide the feeling of ‘live’ performance. Our BTS footage features AIM’s Head of Creative Richard Lindsay, Head of Design Jonny Old, and Writer and Co-director, Steve Rodgers, along with some Australia’s best choreographers, musical theatre, acting, dance, and clowning talent. #lunaparksydney #DreamCircus #artists_in_motion @nathanmarkwright @danielle_evrat @elysha_manik @miss_harbinger @pedro_donoso @zoey.black_ @tommyana

Celebrating the adventures of one the world's most intrepid travellers, Ibn Battuta - pioneer, explorer and scholar - with 360-degree projections on the massive 67.5m-high Al Wasl Plaza dome in Expo City Dubai. Ibn Battuta is celebrated for traversing a total of 117,000 km throughout Africa, Asia and the Arabian Peninsula in the 14th century. @expocitydubai #alwaslplaza #expocitydubai #lightprojections #projectionmapping

Watch as our pre-visualisation turns into reality to form a larger-than-life Royal Carriage at The Londoner Hotel, Macau. A 360-degree LED screen creates the illusion of depth as Londi the Corgi and Bobby the English Bulldog caper and cause mayhem amongst vibrant and gorgeously animated scenes. These loveable characters were conceived, sketched, modelled and animated over several months by AIM’s expert team. @the_londoner_macao #brandactivation #ledscreen #3dart

"The best of Britain under one roof" wouldn't be complete without the iconic double decker bus. This life-sized installation at The Londoner Hotel Macao contains synchronous 42 LED screens – the content a seamless combination of live action shoots and digital creation. @the_londoner_macao #londonbus #ledscreen

Meet Londi the Corgi! This adorable character was brought to life on LED screens disguised as the windows of a 5.5 m oversized magical phone booth - an engaging installation that blurred the lines between animation and audience interaction. Londi’s endearing movements were skilfully controlled by software developed by Artists in Motion, which allowed a concealed performer to see and interact with guests in real-time using the corgi as a virtual animated puppet. Brought to life with motion-captured facial movements, live-voice acting, and an array of triggered feature animations, Londi was the star of the show, captivating passers-by with genuine, interactive conversations.

TBT to Hong Kong’s magnificent New Year's Eve celebrations, where Taiko drummers, pyrotechnics and fireworks marked the beginning of 2023 in grandeur and style. AIM’s projected footage cast larger-than-life drummers onto the towering buildings of Hong Kong’s skyline, their rhythm pulsing energy and synchronicity throughout the city. A fusion of breathtaking light displays and mesmerising soundscapes embodied Hong Kong’s vibrant culture and energy. At midnight, “A Symphony of Lights” and music by the Hong Kong Philharmonic catapulted the city into the new year. @discoverhongkong @hkphilharmonic #artists_in_motion #hongkongculturalcentre #asymphonyoflights

Artists in Motion was honoured to be commissioned by Disney to deliver the animated projection content for “World of Color”, a permanent water show at Disney California Adventure Park, Anaheim.

Looking back to Wisdom & Light, a multi-sensory experience celebrating The Journey of Venerable Master Hsing Yun and His One-Stroke Calligraphy, which ran from September 1st to October 2nd, 2022, in Melbourne’s CBD. The 20-minute audio-visual experience told the inspiring story of Master Venerable Hsing Yun, founder of Fo Guang Shan, one of the world’s prominent Buddhist organisations. Born into poverty and oppression, his indomitable spirit and faith strengthened his dedication to spreading the teachings of the Buddha. An exhibition of Master Venerable Hsing Yun’s distinctive one-stroke calligraphy invited the audience to immerse themselves further in the Master’s world. #buddha #buddhism #hsingyun #artists_in_motion #nantien #FoGuangShan #foguangshanmelbourne

In collaboration with @sea.museum and @vividsydney, @artists_in_motion brought three of the Maritime Museum’s exhibitions to life with a vibrant narrative of projections on the HMAS Vampire. Harbour Life, our seven-minute projection-mapped 3D animation and sound design extravaganza, tells the story of Sydney Harbour - from the First Nation’s aquacultural practices to the arrival of British colonists, environmental damage that followed to the modern technology that enhanced our conservation efforts. Throughout, a colourful display of turtles, coral and brightly coloured fish celebrate the diversity and splendour of ocean life. Shoutout to @sydneyharbourkayaks for sharing a moment from their view on the water. #vividsydney #lightshow #vivid #projectionmapping #sealife #oceanlife #conservation #artistsinmotion
