The singers' faces were filmed on 16mm film and projected onto busts of their faces to make the busts appear animated.
One of the first public displays of projections onto 3D objects was debuted in 1969, when Disneyland opened their Haunted Mansion attraction, which featured singing three-dimensional busts. In recent years this technique has also been widely used in the context of cultural heritage as it has proved to be an excellent edutainment tool thanks to the combined use of a digital dramaturgy.Īlthough the term "projection mapping" is relatively new, the technique dates back to the late 1960s, where it was referred to as the Madame Leota effect, video mapping, spatial augmented reality, or shader lamps. The video is commonly combined with, or triggered by, audio to create an audio-visual narrative. This technique is used by artists and advertisers alike who can add extra dimensions, optical illusions, and notions of movement onto previously static objects. The software can interact with a projector to fit any desired image onto the surface of that object. By using specialized software, a two- or three-dimensional object is spatially mapped on the virtual program which mimics the real environment it is to be projected on. These objects may be complex industrial landscapes, such as buildings, small indoor objects or theatrical stages. Projection mapping, similar to video mapping and spatial augmented reality, is a projection technique used to turn objects, often irregularly shaped, into a display surface for video projection.
