As in the previous year, I was in charge of the visual for the call for proposals for the Agency for Cultural Affairs’ Media Arts Creator Development Support Program. I created the base 3DCG motion in Blender and animated it using rotoscoping techniques. The way the letters of MAC (Media Art Creator) transform freely expresses the process of refining ideas during the proposal stage.

Using a homemade CNC machine, geometric shapes created in CG were “rendered” as light trails in physical space and then re-recorded on camera.
