Projection Mapping: Behind The Scenes
CoPA
Tri-Marq Event Production creates projection mapping for CoPa’s Arty Bollocks Ball.
“The Arty Bollocks Ball showcases a vast cross-section of Milwaukee’s creative talent,” said event organizer and Coalition of Photographic Arts (CoPA) board president, Pam Ferderbar.
One of the most unique creative displays of the night was projection mapping provided by Tri-Marq Event Production. Projection mapping is beaming images onto a non-standard surface, such as a building, where the surface is taken into account when creating how the image will look when projected and viewed. For instance, if one is projecting onto a building, the architecture of the building—the windows, doors, building shape, design elements—are used and incorporated as part of the artistic visual that is created.
We precisely map out the surface so that the projected image interacts with the environment onto which it is being projected, in this case on the side of a building. The event is a celebration of art and artists so we wanted to delight the attendees and general public who may be passing by with a spectacular artistic display.
