videoart

This set design was realized combining several pieces of animation on the notes of Maria Pia Carola piano, performing Rachmaninov's "Etudes Tableaux op 39".
Both executions had to be performed "live" : the pianist was playing , i was mixing and transforming my 3d animation pieces previously elaborated for the event.
The final results would be delivered by connecting 3 different projectors to a vj dedicated workstation, using retro projection techniques and standard set design equipment.
The public is surrounded by a continuous flux of images and music.

A 25 seconds animation commissioned By Senef (Seoul Film Festival) as opening video for the various screening sessions.
This animation is much brighter and colorful than Futurist Toys, also, the dark sky was replaced by a much brighter background, to express better the atmosphere of joy and amusement of the event.
For the same event, it was created also the poster, that You can see above.
Here, an alternate version of the movie, originally created by me, but that resulted too disturbing for the festival (well, I agree with them, but I still like it better than the chosen one)

The World is gonna finish in 2012.

This is what some people said , that is gonna happen, cause Maya people said so.

I think that this mysterious civilization just got lazy in writing numbers in the calendar.

And i Actually understand them.

I get lazy too, if I’m designing a website for a client, and i have to divide the content in base to Year, month, to keep writing those numbers..

But well, we will see..

Anyway, this was a generative painting, inspired by Mayan architecture..

I Hope you like

Ps: Here, a little experimental video…

An immersive digital animation installation about Christmas Nativity, a digital crib realized with revolutionary style.

There is an old Christian tradition, in Italy, about making , during Christmas period , a Nativity scene using little statues representing the Holy Family (Maria, Joseph, and new born Jesus) in their hut and all the local people from Bethlehem , following the comet star visiting them, to see their new born Messiah.

An animation created for a video installation and personal exhibition , talking about the circle of the evolution of our civilization and the ending of itself, for a new start.

Talking about cycles of history, and the constant repeating of events about civilization, starting , evolving, being dominating the world, falling, and starting again.

Creating this animation involved creating first a huge series of mixed generative 3d and digital painted pieces, manually textured, and partially modified (using mainly compositing) to recreate my vision.

A real time video installation for live action theater.
I first prepared some video tracks, then I mixed in real time during the show following the living actions on the stage.
Mixed expressive languages, visual and sounds.
The show was held in Rome, directed by Maria Elena Masetti Zannini and Antonella Accettura.
If You like italian language, You can try to watch the video, is quite experssive, and the language is aulic .
The poster wasen’t made by me.
