Description
Working with Blinkink and Ten Times for G-Shock and Gorillaz we developed a unique digital application called MIMO to bring 2D and Noodle into the real world and onto the interview couch with Mr Ibe, founder and inventor of G-Shock watches, who’s personal vision brought about the world’s toughest watch 35 years ago.
The film uses innovative, world-first technology (MIMO) developed by us to capture a meeting between two cultural entities. Combining machine learning and vision analysis, this bespoke system utilises motion capture technology to create 2D animation in a live performance setting, allowing the band to communicate and interact live in a way that’s never been seen before.
