For this creation we’ve build a special scenery because we wanted to create an immersive space for the spectator. As if you were walking into another world, a world where mirors are magical.

In “Miroir”,  spatial sounds contribute to the  immersive feelings. As a classic lyric singer at the conservatory I’ve worked with the sound designer Christian Schmitt to create Miroir’s sounds.

As the heart of this creation is the program itself, as we worked whith Unity 3D,  Face API SDK and Maya (Autodesk) to create the 3D animals’ heads and their facial expressions (3D blend shapes).

All these elements (scenery, sounds, tracking…) are assembled into a dispositif to create the illusion.
