Mr. Beam, Lichtfestival Gent, 28-01-2011
Op de achtergevel van het conservatorium aan de Biezekapelstraat/Achtersikkel werd tijdens het Lichtfestival een geluid- en lichtprojectie vertoond onder de titel 'Mr. Beam'. Pas na 15 seconden realiseerde ik me dat ik mijn toestel niet verticaal moest houden tijdens het filmen...

Animated Architectural Visualisation - The Achtersikkel (very short clip)
Done back in 2012, a snippet from some of my 2nd Year Bournemouth University project work. A great Belgian building, known as the Achtersikkel, in Gent. I fell in love with the building, and decided to dedicate my main project, of the 2nd academic year of my degree, to this visualisation. As a relative beginner (22months) studying 3D Animation, I was quite pleased with it. But of course we always feel we could do better with what we know now!

Mr.Beam - Licht Festival Gent
For the first time in Belgium, the city of Gent organized a Light Festival and Mr.Beam was part of it. For this special event we chose the back yard of the Gent's conservatory, giving us a beautiful 180° canvas to work with.
The inspiration for this show is mainly based on the huge contrast that the building has in every way. Not only from an architectural point of view - the stunning aged exterior compared with the modern style of the interior -, but also the difference between the overall atmosphere that the building has in day and night. At night time the building gives you a quite dark and spooky feeling, while in broad daylight you will be surrounded by beautiful music that's being played by students.
We created the content with these main elements as an inspiration point. Also the architecture itself was the foundation for both the audio composition and the animations which are inseparable from each other.
