Video Mapping a Smirnoff Ice bottle on to a Smirnoff Ice bottle

Post by PeterTheTechGuy »

For a college project i have to video map a Smirnoff Ice bottle. i've got access to a 2015 MacBook Pro, 3 projectors, the cables needed for the mac and projectors, and a full version of Resolume Arena 5. Any idea how i would go about this? Thanks

Do you need to project 360 degree? If it is a frontal map only, you just need one projector.
You have to consider some distortions, cause a bottle is obviously a cilindric object.
I´d go like this...
1. paint the bottle mostly white;
2. model a 3d object of the bottle;
3. produce all animations and then 3dmap them to the bottle 3d object. Render it.
4. save the rendered sequence to DXV
5. map the DXV video file to the real bottle.

cheers
