Dome immersive video workshop via TouchDesigner
This workshop invites video creator and engineer Revlis HUANG to demonstrate the production of 180-degree fisheye (Fisheye/FullDome) images by using TouchDesigner. He also shares methods for capturing footage with fisheye lenses and producing 2D and 3D visuals for projection in dome environments. At the end of the workshop, participants project their experimental results at the DOME of C-LAB's Future Vision Lab and experience real-time audio-visual performances.
This workshop has two sections: lecture & practice
1. Lecture: the lecturer will demonstrate the production of 180-degree fisheye (Fisheye/FullDome) images by using TouchDesigner. Participants can demonstrate steps by steps on your own laptop.
2. Practice: each participant will have 20 minutes to screen your own video works. The lecturer will guide participant one by one from connecting your own laptop to the system to play your own video works.
