The innovative White Rabbit effort for Syfy’s “Alice” has won both MEDIAWEEK’s 2010 Media Plan of the Year in the “Less Than $1 Million, Out of Home Focus” category as well as the coveted “People’s Choice Award” voted on by industry peers.
Hired by Fallon, Klip shot, created and projected the White Rabbit on three buildings in New York City. The campaign included interactive web banners and costumed rabbits roaming city streets and landmarks.
Congrats to all!
Klip’s installation for Infiniti’s “Journey of Inspiration” took home a GOLD at the District Two Regional ADDY Awards. Next stop, the National ADDY!
We’ve been experimenting with face projections and decided it was a good time to update our crew shot.
(They’ve gone to plaid!)
Ricardo spent the day at MICA and here is the poster they created for the lecture. Pretty cool. Videos of the student created installation to come!
At the 2010 Philly Addy Awards on March 11th, Klip Collective landed “Best of Non-traditional” as well as “Best of Show” for its Syfy “Alice” video projections. The project, conceived by Fallon Minneapolis, was executed along with Egwrk and Moschini Productions in New York City in December 2009.
Ric and Nic are in Pebble Beach for Concours d’Elegance this week. They are preparing for the big reveal of the Infiniti luxury sedan. But the car won’t actually be there. The reveal will be via video installation. Klip Collective is projecting the car on a lifesize foam model. We can’t wait to show you the final installation. The main event begins Wednesday night on August 12th. In the meantime, here is production shot of Ric on a forklift…despite his fear of heights.
For more information about the installation and Concours d’Elegance, here is a good press release.
For the first half of June, I’ll be part of the Tenuous Magic Parts show at 333 South Street. I haven’t hung in awhile so I decided to do something a little different. The work is video feedback from a session I had recently that got really abstract and gooey. I printed out four large abstract video stills which with sweeps of color and a faux texture resemble paintings. Makes you wonder can distorted video be fine art? To pull it all together, I project a loop of the video feedback. I bet you’ll never spot the stills in the video.
I’ll be doing gallery hours on Saturday, June 6th so stop by and check it out.
The W Hotel in Fort Lauderdale opened this June with an installation by Klip Collective. We’re in the process of getting documentation up to show you. In the meantime, here is a brief blurb about it in The Miami Herald:
Snooping around, I found the Living Room lounge as well as the elusive front desk on the third floor of the hotel. The Living Room is extraordinarily stylish with Asian simplicity and other worldliness. Buddha Bar beats provide background music. The bar counter, wall decorations and couches line up in perfect feng shui fashion and a kaleidoscope of images are projected onto concave screens affixed to the vaulted ceiling.
More to come soon…
The Somewhere it is Spring installation is on display for the opening of The Piazza in Northern Liberties in Philadelphia. The installation is located in the PZA Store for the month of June.
We’ve expanded the installation to fill a gallery space. In addition to the girl in the clawfoot tub, we’ve added a video installation of a guy grooming at a sink and vanity mirror. When you enter, the dark room feels haunted by the bathing figures.
The following is the installation description posted in the gallery:
E.E. Cummings created poems as visual objects. Just as he broke from the familiar and created his own visual format, Klip Collective has released video from a restrictive rectangle into a malleable skin that distorts onto any sculptural canvas. In this installation, Klip extracts surrealist beauty from the mundane by playing on what is real and what is not real. Evident in the installation is the duality between the still physical reality and the active illuminated digital medium. The portrayal of the figures straddles the membrane between these two realities and shifts our expectation of video art in new ways.
In addition to the installation, Klip Collective will be VJing and playing new and old video content on the Piazza’s enormous LED display. Stay tuned for more info on DJ nights and movie showings…
My wife Michelle and I are delighted to announce the arrival of our first child Luka Berlin. She was born on December 15, 2008 weighing in at 7 lbs and 1 oz.
For the first two weeks in February, Klip was in Miami Beach during the Super Bowl creating the above installation for Motorola. This spot is the product of lots of sweat and blood after a location change 6 days before project launch. We were on a plane to Florida with no idea where we were [...]
Check out our new buddies Memory Tapes from Philadelphia. This duo is traveling the globe with custom visuals from Klip Collective. The footage was shot at Making Time in February 2010.
In December 2009, Alice’s White Rabbit stormed New York City on city streets, in popular websites like YouTube and Twitter, and on building facades at night. Hired by Fallon in Minneapolis to develop the Alice Campaign for the SyFy Channel, Klip transported the White Rabbit character from the TV screen to digital form. Shot on [...]
As promised, here is the documentation of Klip Collective’s video installation at Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance. As you’ll see in the video, we used video mapping technology to transform a foam mold of the 2011 M into a moving, 3D illusion. Enjoy!
We’re just back from the Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance and we could not be happier with our installation. The long hours and hard work definitely paid off. We’re working on editing our own documentation of the installation. Since there was great press coverage of the event, we found the above video to share.
Also, check out [...]
