UNCONDITIONAL LOVE

Mastering Touch Designer and creating interactive and intuitive systems to create a playful symbiosis of audio and visual elements..

THE CATALYST

Going through difficult times and a phase of creative block, I revived my passion through the intuitive and immersive tools of Touch Designer. Due to its versatility, powerful visual programming, real-time performance, integration capabilities, active community, and continuous development. These factors, combined with its user-friendly interface and extensive documentation, make Touch Designer an exceptional tool for creative expression and the realization of immersive interactive media experiences. I can say for sure that it pushed me to new limits.

PLAYGROUND

Using my development skills and 3D fundamentals I have created an intuitive VJ system where any beginner can jump in and start playing with the different parameters to create his own set of unique visual shots, all synchronized to the music and customizable in every aspect

CAMERA MANAGEMENT

To simplify the process, I created a table that links all the key parameters influencing the atmosphere of individual cameras. These parameters include the Field of View, Luma Depth, Luma Width (range), Bokeh properties, Environment Map (which determines lighting), 3D model, Envelope (manipulating audio input), and Gamma, which defines the light’s range and depth.

PBR FTW

To achieve the desired visual effect, I utilized a PBR Material Shader and created all the necessary maps, such as Diffuse (Color), Ambient Occlusion, Normal Map, Height Map, and an Emissive Map as a finishing touch.

LUT MAGIC

Using a Lookup Table (LUT), I enabled an interactive way to adjust the color palette. The colors were chosen to align with the theme of the song, reflecting its emotional undertones. For example, the psychology of colors like purple and pink plays a significant role, often symbolizing love, tension, and mystery.

ADHD

This project holds personal significance as it stems from a challenging period in my life. During that time, I faced difficulties processing a breakup, struggling with feelings of inadequacy and an inability to create mental space for healing due to ADHD. This song provided a pivotal shift in my perspective, inspiring me to embrace movement and adopt a more constructive approach to navigating those emotions.
