In this installation YesYesNo teamed up with The Church, Inside Out Productions and Electric Canvas to turn the Auckland Ferry Building into an interactive playground. The job was to create an installation that would go beyond merely projection on buildings and allow viewers to become performers, by taking their body movements and amplifying them 5 stories tall. We used 3 different types of interaction - body interaction on the two stages, hand interaction above a light table, and phone interaction with the tracking of waving phones. There were 6 scenes, cycled every hour for the public.

Kinetic Typography

For Paul Rand's posthumous induction into The One Club's Hall of Fame for 2007, Imaginary Forces created a short film, combining original animation with a videotaped interview of Rand himself, that encapsulated his unique and timeless contribution to the design community.



Vertigo Main Titles, designed by Saul Bass

The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor (end title)

Working closely with Rob Cohen, the design team composed scenes similar in style to a graphic novel, building tension and transitions using brushstroke silhouettes of recognizable characters from the film, with 3D models provided by Rhythm & Hues and Digital Domain. Master calligrapher T.Z. Yuan was also consulted for the ink brush writing, to achieve a level authenticity amidst the fantastical elements of the film. The sequence was built around the Chinese calligraphy of the five elements -- water, wood, earth, metal and fire.

Hexstatic Exactshit video mashups

'Exactshit' and 'Now That’s What I Call Exactshit DVD 2' are bootleg mashup DVDs released by Hexstatic. Exactshit is an anagram of Hexstatic. Featuring samples of popular hit songs, only 200 copies of Exactshit were made available at the Big Chill Music Festival 2003 and from the Ninja Tune online store. It has since been more broadly distributed through online file sharing. In late 2006, a second DVD, Now That's What I Call Exactshit DVD 2 was released. The album was widely praised by music critics.

I can't embed my favourite video (AC/DC vs Rockit), but here's a taste of their madness...
