Primitives

by SleepyRon

This is a pack of 3D shapes created specifically for use with Hypno’s video input. The shapes include a sphere, cube, tetrahedron, octahedron, dodecahedron, icosahedron, torus and bounding box. The shapes where rendered via a custom ray tracing shader. The shapes are lit and rotated in various ways to animate the input. All 20 HD videos contain pure red shapes with a black background.

About the Artist:

Primitives is my first effort of providing simple building blocks for Hypno’s video input. While there are a lot of videos you could potentially send through Hypno, there are some types of video that work best and allow for flexibility when editing further with Hypno’s engine. This is why the backgrounds are all black and the shapes are pure red. This allows the user to use the feedback modes to have the background cut out automatically and shift the shape’s color to any color the user desires.
