About
this start up
Sparked by the dENiZEN™ brand message rallying for youths across the world to get together and start something inspirational, a group of innovative light artists known as Lichtfaktor teamed up with dENiZEN™ to create this colorful video with a purpose: To highlight the importance of ecological balance.
Beginning weeks in advance, Lichtfaktor artists got together to design their favourite images of nature, such as jellyfish, birds and flowers using various illuminated items such as colored flashlights, laser projectors and even illuminated bowling pins. The next step was more difficult: Designing the animation techniques to animate these images and bring them to life.
With their finished designs, the young visionaries hit the streets of Cologne, Germany after dark. They create their images by painstakingly and repeatedly drawing, flashing and even juggling their illuminated instruments in thin air. Without the use of any video manipulation software or CGI, these movements are simply captured on video and then sped up to reveal the shapes created by each artist.
As the eye-catching colours pierce through the darkness, they illustrate moving scenes such as a flower from seedling to bloom, a monkey scampering through the city, and even a whale swimming in the streets under a starry sky as the backdrop of stately architecture and cobblestone streets are overtaken by a rich tapestry of nature’s wonders.
