PROJECTION MAPPING
Latoya Flowers
To celebrate Juneteenth, we set out to create a design that
represented Black Americans descended from slavery. Using line-art patterns with an American red, white, and blue color palette, symbolizing the connection between enslaved Africans brought to America and their descendants today. The burning fire reflects Black empowerment since the Emancipation Proclamation, while the crown
above the letter “J” represents the strength to overcome the legacy of U.S. slavery.
Design and animation was done in After Effects. The fire was created in Cinema 4D, using its standard particle generator.
We then projected the graphics on two surfaces: the wax lantern and a wall as a background plate with Light Form.
