Fresh off the projection mapping work we did for TedX LSU in early 2017, we were approached by Brian Harris Porsche to take on a projection mapping effort for a reveal event they were hosting to reveal the 2017 Porsche Panamera. Our scope involved building a sequence around the car starting, revving the engine, then speeding off into the distance; and then projection mapping it to the car itself.
Our process for achieving the finished result was first to work with a 3D model of the Panamera to match the perspective of the projectors that would project the images onto the car, and then to create 3 separate perspectives which were then painstakingly mapped to the contours of the car itself. After several rounds of testing at the dealership, we arrived at the correct perspective to get 3 sides of the car covered using only 2 projectors, thus making the car a perfect canvas for the sequence we created.
