Modul8: Immediate Control
Live visuals are fast becoming an accepted practice in the performing arts. Many trends can be attributed to this growth. One of them is the widespread access to powerful computers, many of them portable, that are capable of displaying and manipulating moving images in ‘real time.’ Modul8 is one of the leading softwares of reference in this medium. Its balance between ease of use, flexibility, speed and interoperability has captured the attention of visual artists working in a wide variety of disciplines.
Part 1: Basics
A formal introduction to the basic concepts in modul8. Using imported media the focus will be on the usage of layers and creating compositions in real time followed by an introduction on how to use use external devices such as MIDI interfaces so that mixing images becomes more less like pressing play on a DVD player and more like playing a musical instrument.
Part 2: Expand
Modules allow for the creation of custom text, drawing, and much more. Learn how to access and use the basic modules that come pre-installed as well as access other modules through the online library and then get some experience with creating your own custom solutions.
