Design Challenge
The primary difficulty of this project lies in the coordination among diverse professions and the manageability of AIGC.
Project Duration
The creativity and production of this project started in Shanghai in July 2023, and after completion, it was performed at the main venue of the World Design Capital Conference in Shanghai in September 2023.
Operation Flow
This multimedia fashion show is performed every autumn in Shanghai, and this is the version of the 2023 World Design Capital Conference. By being invited to watch live, the experience will be very stunning, but it can also be watched online through global live streaming.
Research
This project is a multimedia fashion show that will be one of the main performances during the 2023 World Design Capital Conference. It is the result of collaborative research and creation by teachers and students from various design majors at universities, including visual communication design, digital media art, fashion design, performance, artificial intelligence, music, and dance. The purpose of this work is to reinterpret local culture and showcase the achievements of young designers to the world through integrated performances. The video primarily uses technologies such as Three Dimensional Animation, AIGC, and Naked-eye 3D. This work expresses the imagination of "Eastern fashion" to the world through the reconstruction and interpretation of traditional elements. It emphasizes the balance between inheritance and innovation in digital scenarios. The runway uses a large number of digital art expression methods, integrating digital clothing with natural elements and Eastern cultural elements, and walking through a 270-degree immersive circular giant screen. Being immersed in it is like entering the gate of the fashion metaverse, presenting a style of virtual and real fusion and future retro. The performance reflects the cross-disciplinary and interdisciplinary creative state of young designers in Shanghai. This event has helped release over 60 sets of cutting-edge designer works, received coverage from over a dozen media outlets, and conducted global live broadcasts, gaining widespread social attention. We have made positive contributions to promoting emerging fashion forces to a larger stage and attracting industry and market attention.
Inspiration
The stage featured a colossal spacecraft named The Magic Ship of The Orient, which was made up of Chinese fans, Pipa, and engines. The dynamic landscape painting, phoenix, Chinese gardens, Shikumen, and contemporary Shanghai were depicted in a surreal space. The stage background of the fashion show created an astonishing immersive experience, while the giant animations generated by AIGC synchronously echo more than 60 sets of real models.
