The stunning 3D building projects you just sawwere made by a company called NuFormer in the Netherlands. The process of how they create such amazing animations isn’t widely known for obvious reasons. But if I had to guess they start out by talking a series of photogrammetric images, allowing them to them model a fairly exact copy of the building facade inside the computer. They then can test real world projection camera placement, and refine the animation in this digital sandbox. Now I could be totally wrong and they could just be using magic or something, but that’s at least how I would do it.

You might have actually caught a still from one of their projections in last weeks Photo Dump #4. Which honestly was a totally unintentional. It was just an image that I came across and I thought had some clever photoshopping done to it. I had no idea that it was a still from a real art installation! But once Jess sent me this video I just had to write a quick post about it! Because I’ve honestly never seen anything like the work that NuFormer is doing. Sans the goofy pop music of course, ha.

What do you all think of it? Anyone in the Netherlands actually seen this in real life? Let me know in the comments section below!
