Building Complexity from Simplicity | Marco Rossi | OFFF HIVE 2024

Описание: From simplicity to complexity, in this presentation, we will explore a series of techniques that originate from simple concepts but are cleverly combined to produce visually rich and complex results.We will embark on a journey through the various techniques employed in the Symphony project, an immersive audiovisual experience that transports the viewer on a journey through emotions and classical music.

Furthermore, we will explore other strategies applied in different projects, which allow the combination of seemingly simple techniques to achieve visually captivating effects.
