World Spirit screening and after-party.
This is a project I worked on last year. I was asked to create a 3 screen setup for Alex Grey's World Spirit event. It was a love hate relationship with the project.
Alex's still images were huge. 35-65mb a piece. We had to use animation codecs because anything else looked like crap. Alex's work has lots of fine lines and details that look terrible when scaled down. It took over 300gb of store for the project. Then on the final day we lost 100's of gb's due to filling up the drives. The end result was a show that didn't always have motion in the video. I worked for weeks on the project with Ben Sheppee. We got about 12 hours a sleep in one week. The final days we didn't sleep for two days.
That was the hate.
The love was working side by side with Alex Grey. He spent numerous hours in the studio with us helping us edit and reformat his work. He is a truly amazing individual.
So with strong emotion I finally get to see the screening of the event.
I encourage anyone in the SF Bay area to come out.
