Projection Mapping On White House
Live Design: Imagine the façade of the White House as the canvas for your projection-mapping project. Last Halloween, the balconies and columns of the South Portico were projection-mapped for the first time. Norman Coates, director of lighting at the University of North Carolina School of the Arts School of Design and Production (UNCSA) and the Winston Salem Light Project, worked with students and alumni from UNCSA on the lighting and projection for the event.

In recent weeks I’ve been taking a course that touches upon projection mapping and how to manipulate an image on any surface. With the right amount of time, its easy to make any image appear as though you are looking at it on a flat wall. During a crew call that I had last week we used a program called Millumin to projection map all over a warehouse. Depending on how OCD you are it might take you 12 hours before you are happy with you image but it’s very possible. After looking at some of the pictures of the White House I am curious to know how many projects were used and the program they used to run the system. I can only image someone standing next to one of the pillars in the front of the house and staying and inch to the left… ooop oop wait now 2 inches to the left. I can only image the hard work that went into making this project possible, but I’m sure many people including the President of the United States were very impressed.
