does VDMX detect body shape and movement?

@holaatdaman

i don't think VDMX itself detects body shape and movement, however it does support live video taps and is fully capable of using Quartz Composer to create effects.

so in short. yes, but with a little bit of QC work.

i'd look on the vidvox or quartz composer forums for advice but i'm sure it's possible.

hey nice tutorial dude you explained pretty good :) I do it the same way but I use resolume, i´m trying different software VDMX this time, I just installed it and getting to know it, I all ready tried to get the output options but I´m not sure about getting many screen outputs for different projectors, my question is hahaha how can I arrange different output screens to different projectors? any hot tips? Thanks and keep up the good work!

hey blud, great tutorial ... i need to ask you though i am being asked to make an outdoor projection, i am being told i need to use all kinds of things i dont know like VDMX or Maxmsp or PD or whatever i just need to know why do i need those anything extra over after effects? cant i just render a video out and play it?

[silvanamartos]

heya :) thanks for the vid! am trying to project onto 2star shaped surfaces which is the best way to do this? I noticed you worked your files in after effects... is there a way to manipulate the corners of a video on vdmx?

very usefull, but i have a question, im toying with an idea for an opening sequence to a festival and i have a surface that requires 3 projectors to cover. Is that even possible to do?
