Pioneering creative art
Danny Rose has pioneered the concept of a virtual three-dimensional dynamic set design for the stage, opera and theatre as well as music concerts, events and artistic works.
“We design our content to act as a continuous dialogue between various production elements including music, stage, images as well as the written and spoken word,” added Carrubba.
Just a few of Danny Rose services include:
Interactive video mapping
Over the last few years, Danny Rose has pioneered the development of 3D real-time interactive projection mapping on to urban surfaces and indoor spaces.
They have added a new dimension to video mapping by adding and inserting dynamic interactivity between the user’s body movements and the immersive, visual and sonic experience of the video mapping. The user becomes the true protagonist in creating and augmenting their own sonic and visual universes.
Recent projects include ‘Play Me!’ and ‘Move Your Building’ onto Customs House for Vivid Sydney 2013 and 2014, allowing every audience member to get involved with interactive content.
