An artistic interpretation of windtunnel flying wrapped in a short film.
When we started this project, windtunnel flying wasn’t portrayed that much in an artistic way. We wanted to make a short; to inspire others and fill this remaining gap.
There was a very small and tight budget, nevertheless we made a computer controlled ledwall out-of 72 ledstrips. Which could be placed behind the tunnel glass, so it was possible to make our ideas happen. To get the inverted look, we wrapped the whole tunnel in silk paper, with our led wall evenly lighting it from the back.
