Type of work: Concept Design
This shot was designed for the theatrical production "Apassionata: The Dream." The Munich venue featured a custom-built indoor stage surrounded by large panels positioned on the sides and overhead. Multiple projectors strategically placed throughout the theatre projected the foreground elements visible in the image onto these panels. The expansive stage provided ample space for numerous performers, dancers, and horses, while a massive 50-meter LED screen at the rear created dynamic backgrounds that synchronised seamlessly with both the panel projections and the narrative, delivering a deeply immersive theatrical experience.
This concept shows the final stage of the set design for the Cathedral floating in outer space. You can clearly see how the elements are strategically separated to be projected onto their corresponding panels - the ceiling is on its own layer, as well as the floor and so are the three pillars on both sides. The image beyond them was going to be displayed on the 50m LED screen.
Once the design was approved, I built the entire set in 3D, applying detailed textures and establishing the lighting scheme throughout. The whole model was then passed on to the compositor who assembled it into the final scene.
