Digital City

This the film I presented at the Crit. It is certainly a work in progress… Frustratingly, I seemed to spend such a large amount of time learning as opposed to creating but I will continue to work on it as

Final Test

This is the final test, an animated transition between the digital and the physical footage. The first frame of each sequence is geospatially referenced as a perspective within Google Earth to provide a near seamless transition.

3D Tracking Test

I finally worked out how to render a 3D object (the good old teapot) in a scene using motion tracking. This test footage is a bit jittery in places but you get the idea. The next step would be to

Aerial Route

This is an example of the footage that will be shown as part of the route. It will be synchronised along with the other aspects of the sequence, elements of which will accumulate over time. It was achieved recording a

Memorial Memory

Another test sequence this time overlaying, rather than augmenting. The clip shows Pathe newsreel footage of a WWI memorial service circa 1932. The aim is to explore the notion of a digital sense of place – an enhancement of reality

Conceived back in the late sixties, Centreplan 70 was the name of a master-plan to redevelop Cardiff’s city centre. Thankfully it was never realised, due in part to the 1970s property recession. This film is my cut on the original,

Pilot Two

This is my second pilot which involved motion-tracking the base footage using Mocha and then rendering an image or animation on top with After Effects. It may not look like much but it took a long time to fathom. There

Pilot One

A bit of an experiment with my conventional camera while I wait for the fish-eye lens to arrive. The overlay, which would most likely be shown in parallel, is an extraction from the raw GPS trace data of Cardiff’s OpenStreetMap.
