Art Camp<\/strong> is a New York\u2013based creative studio founded in 2016 by Santiago Carrasquilla and Jos D\u00edaz Contreras, devoted to crafting immersive experiences through video, animation, and design. Guided by the mission to \u201creach hearts, feel deeper, reach differently, and hear in new ways,\u201d Art Camp approaches each project as a fusion of emotional depth and technical precision.<\/p>\n

The studio has collaborated with an impressive roster of clients, including Thom Yorke<\/strong>, U2<\/strong>, and Stefan Sagmeister<\/strong>, as well as global brands like Nike<\/strong>, Telfar<\/strong>, and Herm\u00e8s<\/strong>. Their work blends artful storytelling with cutting-edge digital techniques, continually pushing the boundaries of what\u2019s possible in visual media.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

For the music video La belle et la b\u00eate<\/em> by French rock band Indochine<\/strong>, Art Camp explored the expressive language of movement from two angles: a folkloric-inspired dance sequence and a contemporary choreographic interpretation. Working in 3D, they created a wide array of environments\u2014from minimalist spaces to surreal, dreamlike landscapes\u2014paying meticulous attention to lighting, camera angles, and cloth simulation to achieve a near-live-action realism.<\/p>\n

To power their rapid 3D production pipeline, Art Camp used Character Creator<\/strong> and the Headshot plugin<\/strong> to craft photorealistic digital doubles, iClone<\/strong> for scene layout, animatics, and motion cleanup, and ActorCore<\/strong> for retargeting dance mocap data from Reallusion\u2019s content store. This workflow enabled the team to generate and animate characters in a matter of hours\u2014streamlining production while maintaining creative flexibility under tight deadlines.<\/p>\n

\n

\u201c Our goal was to achieve a realistic aesthetic, with careful attention to lighting, camera angles, and cloth simulation, so that the scenes would feel almost as if they had been filmed with real people.\u201d<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n
