Concert media made with Blender
Mikko writes:
Blender 2.55 was recently used to create media for Surftones concert “Celestial journey”.
The goal of the project was to create media using only Blender. The project included a course in Kaustinen College Of Music where Blender basics were taught to 5 students in 1.5 month perioid. The final media for the concert was mixture of media made by course students and the course teacher Blender artist Mikko Saari.
Two Picturall Octo mediaservers where used to play back the media using 6 video projectors.
Hearing some Genesis influences there. Awesome stuff!
Trippy! Cool to see different usages of Blender.
Dudes, did you seen Phil Collins there? )
Visuals rocks, music rocks too! I love the drummer playing especially.
BTW – how was that projected? Is this one projector?
Aha, 6 projectors! Very serious task.
reat music, genesis + dixie dregs, may be… anyway i don’t know if i love more the music or the fact you use blender!
i remember when only the pink floyd used similar tricks… now creativity owns to all, W progressive music, w open source!

One medium, two media, three medias?
;-)
Cool project though.
Nicely done, good music too.
5 minutes I’ll never get back!
Glad Blender’s got some usage. I’ve actually heard of this band before, and they’re kinda famous. I would like to see how the technicians set up the projectors..
Hi Blender fans,
Some answers to projection questions:
We used I think near 100 video clips on the concert. Octo servers were controlled real time with Chamsys lighting console. Main screen is done with 4 projectors. 2 Projectors are used as a lighting effects. The media for the main screen had something like 3500 x 768 resolution.
