OFF THE PLANET - Red Bull
Artist(s): ENESS - Multimedia moguls since 1997 (Melbourne-based Installation Artists)
Snowboarders include riders such as Russell Henshaw, Sean Pettit and Simon Dumont.
To achieve the effects demonstrated in this video, Melbourne based installation artists ENESS created a floating 21’ inflatable sphere, placed right between the two ramps. Their exclusive software allowed them to map 3-dimensional visuals onto the snow and the sphere, thus fusing interactive art with skiers and snowboarders flying through the air. To make these visuals truly interactive, snowboarders were tracked using an infrared camera. Projectors, action lighting, and long throw reflectors are a few examples of the specific resources necessary to create such an experience.
