NEC Entrance Installation
Kyushu Branch welcomes visitors with a permanent video installation at the entrance in Tenjin Business Center in Hakata opened in 2021. Our team developed motion graphics and a real-time generative application for the installation.
We originally created motion graphics with the client's motto “ONE NEC”, using different motifs inspired by the architectural facade, the unique light in the office lobby, traditional craft patterns of Fukuoka etc. The application generates thousands of video patterns mixing the motion graphics and movies chosen by the client on the 3x3 grids automatic split screen. It shows fresh video footage every 3 minutes.
