Projection mapping onto white cubes

For this projection mapping I was using an
  • Optoma LED short throw projector
  • Canon EOS 1300D camera
  • Adobe Premiere pro CC 2015
  • Madmapper
 
The cubes are from plywood and been design in Solidworks (if you'd like to do the same cubes, you can PM me and I can send you the DXF files) and after they've been glued, sanded and painted to get an even white color so they're reflecting nicely the projection.








For the spatial scanning I was using the DSLR camera and by doing that I got an image where I can do the design part, mapping up the quads, lines etc.








In the video for the background I edited the footage and after I masked out the cubes so it's interfering with the projection on the cubes.

Madmapper Project

Madmapper is a projection mapping software and my project is about projecting onto 3D surfaces and trying to figure out what are the capabilities and limitations of the software. I started to use the software last Wednesday (21st of June) since then I could manage to use the software on a basic level. On a basic level I mean being familiar with the interface and tested a few simple ideas. For example I set an image of a room into the preview output window and made simple mapping such as rectangles with different colors and with videos. As I was watching the tutorials I had to realize there is a lot of "pre-production" involved when a full scale project is being made using a mapping software like Madmapper. So in order to be able to use the software in it's full "potential" I need to use other software. These software are Adobe Premier pro, After Effects, Quartz Composer, Ableton Live. My initial plan is to have samples of clips - audio and video, and synchro...

QC - Quartz Composer

I'm using Quartz Composer as a medium between Ableton live and Madmapper. " Quartz Composer is a node-based visual programming language provided as part of the Xcode development environment in macOS for processing and rendering graphical data." - this is what Google says about it. QC is a really straightforward platform because of the graphical interface. It's using patches (functions) to create graphical transitions/animations, music visualizer etc.  I'm using QC to get MIDI from Ableton and with that it will trigger the action of a color flashing up.  Getting only 2 patches - MIDI note receiver and sprite. There is a little adjustment needed on the MIDI note receiver because when I first tried and set everything correctly - for example the trigger is the note C3 in Ableton and in QC as well but it was not working. After I found on the Madmapper tutorial that Ableton using middle as C3 but QC using C5. So by setting in QC the middle C to 3 solved the p...
