Trainer: Riccardo Giovinetto

CATEGORY: Workshop

DURATION: 7 h

LEVEL: Intermediate 

LANGUAGE: ITA

PRICE: 49€

DESCRIZIONE
Il workshop si pone l’obiettivo di analizzare e applicare in scala le varie fasi di lavorazione necessarie per realizzare un’opera di interazione audio video in tempo reale.

 

Sperimentando sulle peculiarità della relazione esistente tra Ableton Live e Max8-Jitter, vengono forniti gli strumenti teorico-pratici per realizzare delle miniature creative, in cui la relazione tra gli eventi sonori e la materia visiva sia parte strutturale dell’opera.

 

La prima parte del lavoro si svolge su materiali “grezzi” forniti dal docente e sulla strutturazione di un’idea concettuale condivisa all’interno del gruppo di lavoro, in modo da orientare le scelte estetiche da effettuare per la realizzazione delle miniature. Nella seconda parte, in base al lavoro fatto su diverse tecniche di interazione – sia su texture (image-based) che su mesh (points cloud/lines) – i partecipanti sviluppano e personalizzano i materiali per la realizzazione di una breve opera di interazione Audio Video.

 

TARGET
Studenti, Produttori, Professionisti del settore

I partecipanti dovranno portare il proprio computer con i seguenti software già installati:

 

–Ableton Live 12 versione Suite
