OVERVIEW

Projection mapped enchanting visuals that transformed and distorted the building in an abstract display of colour and sound. Additionally, a reactive light up Ice Castle was constructed and set up for families to climb and play on.

Projected onto the BMO / GoodLife Building on Stephen Ave, Calgary.

Ice Castle was displayed in Olympic Plaza.

Spectacle and wonder await...

For Chinook Blast 2023, a vibrant winter festival in downtown Calgary, Bird Creative commissioned us to create a stunning projection mapping display on the exterior of the BMO building and an interactive ice castle. The projection mapping featured dynamic visuals that celebrated Calgary's winter wonderland that illuminated and transformed the building, utilizing high-lumen projectors and weatherproof enclosures to ensure bright and clear images despite harsh winter conditions.

Additionally, we built an interactive ice castle adorned with LEDs that illuminated when stepped on, adding an engaging element for festival-goers. This project captivated thousands of attendees, enhanced the festival experience, and fostered community pride while demonstrating the transformative power of art and technology.
