Aqualume


Project: Aqualume – Petrobras // Client: Biruta Multimidia // Date: 09.2007

Um leque d’agua gigante serviu de tela para o Clássico Vj Set de Moleculagem. Um efeito visual inédito para nossos olhos; o carater “etéreo” do suporte fez com que apenas videos de altissimo contraste imprimissem ao serem projetados nas águas da Lagoa Rodrigo de Freitas – RJ.

Visuals from Moleculagem VJ set been projected in a huge water “spray” at lagoa rodrigo de freitas.
