About the event:
The concert and the holiday dedicated to the 150th anniversary of the birth of the outstanding composer, pianist, conductor Sergei Rachmaninov.
A large literary and musical concert “Rakhmaninov. Symphony of Life.
"Unique video content created specifically for this project, the author's text by the talented Moscow playwright Yuri Sukhodolsky, Rachmaninov's iconic musical works performed by the symphony orchestra of the Voronezh Concert Hall, the unique vocals of the soloist of the Bolshoi Theater Anna Aglatova."
"On one stage, four types of art will unite: music, cinema, artistic expression and vocals, giving the viewer a unique opportunity to see the path of a person and a genius, to immerse themselves in the bright and unusual world of the musician, conductor, composer Sergei Rachmaninov, who was called all over the world for an hour and a half the magician of the pianoforte and the voice of time."
About my role in this project:
Initially, I came to the project as a motion designer, but further I bacame an AI superviser too.
There are not always enough sourses for historical reconstruction, but if you want to make a spectacular and informative presentation, artificial intelligence comes to the help.
Whether there is a falsificatiom in this case, who knows, but the task of a motion designer is to provide quality content for the viewer in accordance with the terms of reference.
A feature of the terms of reference was a non-standard scene format (6240x1040pix), which led to some compositional and technical difficulties.
Example of using AI for the project:
Young Rachmaninoff in the Image of Mozart (without any photos, just promts):
Studying process of young Rachmaninoff:
