WE DROPPED A SPOON IN CHAMBORD
to create the VIDEO MAPPING of
# Architectural Mapping
CHATEAU DE CHAMBORD - France
LES NUITS DE CHAMBORD "Renaissance"
Chambord was the initiator of the first sound and light show in the world in 1952.
In 2022, Chambord revived this tradition and welcomed thousands of spectators for a new sound and light show also mixing pyrotechnic effects and … video mapping.
A great fresco combining the history and legends of one of the most majestic French castle and going back to the origins of the castle, its multi-century forest, its fauna and flora. It is an ode to the 4 elements, earth, water, air and fire.
Masters & Events Factory, with the support of the Domaine National de Chambord, creator and organizer of the event, called upon Drop The Spoon to take up the challenge of creating a 60-minute content, evocative and respectful of the building with its 500 years of history.
A challenge that the Drop The Spoon team, called late on the project, had to realize in less than a month.

facts and challenges
Our Main & 1st Challenge :
Projecting images as respectfully as possible on such a majestic building full of history.
Our 2nd Challenge :
Create 60 minutes of content in less than a month on a building that we have entirely recreated in 3D.
Our 3rd Challenge :
INTEGRATE THE PROBLEM IN THE STORY
Several areas of the castle were covered with scaffolding.
To accept, to make forget and to integrate a parameter, initially frustrating and disturbing, with the history and the images, we created content that sometime emphasize, sometime hides those scaffolding.

STAIRCASE
Attributed to Leonardo da Vinci, the Chambord staircase has a unique feature at the time:
two screws, which rise one above the other and which seem to form only one.
