An immersive rave experience blending nature with the pulse of the crowd

Deliverables: VJ loop for main stages and ceiling panels Role: Motion Designer, 3D modeling, texuring, animating, rendering, compositing, in person tech walk through
Tools: After Effects, Cinema 4D, Octane Render, Redshift Render, midjourney, Topaz Video enhance AI, and Resolume ARENA

_Project Overview
I had the opportunity to create the main visuals for two private rave events in NYC. The first venue featured a cubic space with projection mapping on walls and floors, while the second venue had moving six-panel ceilings and a main stage area, allowing my visuals to come alive through spatial effects.

I developed multiple visual loops, blending mechanical elements with organic, flower-like forms to create a striking contrast that complemented the techno music. Using AI tools like Midjourney for concept development and Topaz Video Enhance AI for adjusting 3D render speeds, I streamlined production to fit within a tight three-week timeline. I also conducted technical walkthroughs at both venues and collaborated with the VJ to sync visuals with live DJ performances in Resolume Arena.
