Digital design with our red rhino - fully code based off our hand drawn painted mural. Translatable to hand drawn pavement art in many variotions and concepts.

 

Starting from a hand painted artwork, concept expanded to present as a two panel anamorphic illusion. Added animated waterfall and figures for the 4D augmented reality effect which allows attendees to interact with the art that can be digitally printed with AR overlaid and viewable through our screen to share with your video social media.

 

Completed Projects Using Hand Drawn Art and 4D Augmented Reality: Festivals, Public Art, Corporate Events

We are excited about the possibilities of blending traditional hand drawn and painted illusionary art with 4D still and animated augmented reality to bring a new level of interaction for your events, murals, festivals, and public art.

Tell us about your project and we will be pleased to hear from you.

Check Out the 4D Pool Party!! Augmented Reality, Chalk Art

4D Animated Augmented Reality with 3D Chalk Art by Anthony Cappetto and Art for After Hours in Westfield NJ

Art for After Hours brought a full 4D animated augmented reality driven installation to the community of Westfield NJ using animated dancing characters, our own hand drawn AR overlays, and traditional hand drawn chalk art featuring this 3D party pool and a series of hand drawn chalk vignettes located around the downtown Westfield area. Some images were set up to have an AR component as part of our weeklong project.

We had a great time sharing our excitement about the blending of traditional art and emerging technologies with the visitors who saw and participated ‘diving’ and dancing with the animated, dynamic characters during the event weekend itself.

'Respect Existence...' 3D Street Art Public Art Installation, Baltimore MD

‘Respect Existence’, was a 3D street art installation completed in Baltimore MD to call attention to the children of parents and family members seeking asylum in the United States but being held in detention facilities similar in principle to the internment camps holding Japanese, Italian, and German Americans during World War II.

Above in the work, one sees the four children detained on a metal bench facing the US Flag, upside down, indicating distress. Each child is holding part of a mylar blanket issued to keep them warm, draped over a landscape at the Rio Grande between Mexico and the United States separated from freedom by prison bars.

Beyond the prison bars is a Trump Wall free world with freedom and fairness for all, typically the policy of our Nation of Immigrants.

#Respect #Resist #Remember

Prior to our live 3D street painting project, we were developing a 4D animated augmented reality component positioning animated children holding placards of #Respect and #Remember while an ICE guard was programmed to walk menacingly at the base of the art.

This was a moving piece for us and for the Baltimore community. Despite a weekend of inclement weather, sometimes part of live outdoor work; we were proud to share this artistic statement. #Respect #Remember

When 4D animation becomes part of the 3D chalk mural, we are combining or mingling 21st century computer technology with the animated models as well as the coordination with the hand drawn (or pre printed) street artwork blending art past and contemporary. 

Below is a video and still compilation of 4D in action.  This piece is called ' Visions of Cambodia', a dry chalk piece 30 by 40 feet in size with a 4D emerging technologies component. 

 

We have been big fans of using emerging technologies such as AR, VR, virtual spaces, and more in our projects and demos and now offer the 4D immersive installation experience with our 3D murals hand drawn live, pre printed, and digitally delivered with the look of chalk or paint for larger projects in multiple locations.
